RAM heatsinks is literally just a product differentiation technique. Gamers like having colourful BADASS RAM heatsinks so companies give the only people who care about 3000mhz memory some aluminium that prevents your CPU cooler from clearing.

Everyone else doesn't care, I mean I think DDR3 memory is rated to like 90 degrees celsius. Overheating memory isn't something I've never encountered, even with a god awful Pentium 4 with a stock cooling in the middle of the Australian summer.
