    if its a heat problem removing ram wont help. It sounds more like the 2GB of ram that the guy removed was bad, so you need to replace it.

    Process of elimination. If you take out a bad stick and it works, and put it back in and it doesn't work, it's the stick in your hand that's at fault. Get it replaced.

    i was thinking buy a new fan but i heard about some kind of liquid that works better than the fan, it's that truth?

    liquid cooling is not for the average user as it is very high maintenance and is not particularly easy to install. The liquid is usually distilled water.

    About the liquid cooling, if you decide to get it installed then it would be best to get a custom made cooling system for your machine.

    Don't buy the "premade" cooling systems, they are cheap, because of the low-quality materials used in them (you don't want water pouring out in your case in the middle of a game).

    depends on the company that made it.
