Howdy!
I am currently in the middle of modding my rig and have decided to go with a black and white theme. Unfortunately my Corsair RAM came with blue heatspreaders (I bought it second hand from eBay) and thus they do not match anything else. Being the kind of guy I am I just decided to take the plunge and spray paint them white.
This has gone splendidly well and two of the 4GB sticks are currently happily running my rig. What didn't go well was the paint running on one of the other two sticks as I was painting it, forcing me to clean it up and remove the heat spreader from the stick to ensure no damage had been done. Annoyingly I cannot seem to find any information regarding the thermal pad/tape stuff that Corsair use to secure the heat spreader to the module, and thus now have 1 green PCB that looks even worse than the blue heat spreader did.
What I need is help either with securing a direct replacement, for which I am quite happy to pay of course, or the specific details of the item used so that I may find a replacement from elsewhere. I really hope someone here can help me as I desperately want this build to look good, and being unable to purchase an entirely new set of RAM, this is my only option.
For karma here is my build, rather than a picture of a kitten: http://ift.tt/1pqLhw3
