I'm looking to grab some 8200/8400 DDR5, and maybe run it at ~8000 MT/s or so and tightly trim timings. I'm semi-planning to water cool the RAM, based on what I've been seeing regarding most people's overclocked RAM temperatures. Hoping to get some feedback from those of you running OC DDR5 (7000+ MT/s). What cooling you use?

Regarding build, I'm going APEX ENCORE and 14900k - so I don't expect to be limited from the IMC.

Yeah, I'd love to hear how your encore runs along with the RAM.

My goal is to keep the dimms under 40C, and so far water seems the only way based on what I'm seeing others say. But - if those heatsinks paired with a high CFM fan on top do the trick, I'd have no issue going that route.

Keep me posted buddy

Know it's 2 weeks out, but I was quite wrong about the Bykskis

If your goal is to keep them sub-40 the Bykskis will work

Even running RAM Test they're usually sub-40c but their peaks are pretty up there

(active cooled with a 120mm + Encore fan, Bykski heatspreaders, Thermal Grizzly 1,5mm thermal pads)
