OK - here's something interesting. After the major workout of today, my OWC RAM is now running cooler than it ever has before (see F and Cels temps below). Only around 54C and 130F - by far the lowest readings I've had since buying the OWC RAM. I did give my RAM a memory check when I first bought it, but this is the most intensive work I've put it through yet.

I have no idea why this might be the case. Does the RAM need a workout before getting to proper temps, or were the temp sensors off until the workout? Anyway, the temps seem much more reasonable now. :confused:
Anyone else with similar experience? I guess if you're having issues with your RAM heat, putting it through a workout might 'break it in' somehow... will let you all know if the high temps come back.
