I have two Supermicro X8DTH-IF's both systems have 96G per CPU.
System one has DDR3-14800 RAM and the plain modules don't really feel much warmer than body temperature when running.
System two has DDR3-10600 RAM and while the set on the first CPU is the same as the ram on system one, the second set which was produced by Netlist and has heatspreaders is so hot that 3 hours after I touched it I can still feel the effects on my finger tips, I have never felt ram this hot.
System one CPU 1 and 2 and System two CPU 1 are both running IBM 16GB modules and you don't really notice that much above your own body temperature when touching them System two CPU 2's ram however ran that hot that it heated up the case, caused the CPU fan to go nuts on CPU2 and an early system overheat alarm.
I restarted memtest which is what I was doing at the time because this memory was brought 2nd hand after placing a Scythe 120mm Fan next to CPU 2's RAM, I don't know what the current temperature is on the ram but it is still way higher than body temperature but memtest is still running and up to Pass 8% Test 92%.
Can anyone shed any light on this, I am actually wondering if someone has taken some slower ram, re burned the speed prom and put some spreaders on it with a label that shows it's faster than it actually is.
