The ram isn't watercooled on this one. But the cpu & gpu are. Also keep in mind that the mountain mod case like that is compartmentalized. The psu with the hd's and 5-1/2 slots are in the bottom compartment. The top is just the mobo. Six 120mm fans push air through and the radiator is a 240mm x 80mm.

There is a ton of air moving through it. So like right now it's 31 degrees and the gpu is 37. After a couple hours of OCCT stress testing, I've seen it get up to 57 degrees... temps aren't a problem; getting the gigabyte mobo with the x38 chipset stable is another story
