Looks like this RAM and cooler to me, way too tired to even think what clue that means yet :laugh:

A few seconds in is a picture of the underneath of the cooler

Would the first part of the clue be, Smooth Sailing? ..corsair.. ship etc..
This is one where the clue is independent of the video. And I'm not saying nowt more for a few hours as I've a load to be getting on with.
Well it's definately a twin set of dominator RAM, with a cooler, I guess the clue will point to which set is the one in the video.
No more guesses?

Here's a helper… think of different words for smooth…
i'm going to try the ‘overly complicated’ approach again.. it might make sense,might not, but it does form an answer if you think about it..

privateers - pirates - they use corsair ships..

initially Tea - word begins with T - TwinX

take you to the show - google it and this pops up http://www.web.net/~choir/ucc84_199905.htm - salute to the new millenium - year 2000 - ram speed in mhz

not 40 yet - not 4096 mb ram - 2048 mb instead


bung it all together you get the 2GB(2x1GB) CorsairTwinX XMS3 Dominator DDR3 PC3-16000(2000)



but hang on a second, i missed out ‘smooth’ and where did i get dominator from. well have a read of this.. http://www.epinions.com/review/Dominator_Radial_T_D_Truck_SUV_Tire/content_209754230404

Dominator Tires…A smooth responsive ride

as i said - overly complicated, but it fits so perfectly it has to be right, doesn't it?

my head hurts with all this thinking..
