Today I just bought a PCI slot cooler(works great), but I was thinking about my HD and RAM. I've fixed my RAM problems that some of you may know about, so now I've got 1 GB of PC2100 RAM. (512 X 2) Since there are 2 sticks, would you guys recommend a RAM cooler? Also, would you recommend a cooler for the Hard drive? (Maxtor 80GB 7200RPM) Oh yeah, my PC is a Dell Dimension 4400. Thanks
