yes that's the ones, I just removed the brackets and used the Ali shrowd to stick to side of CPU heatsinks with foam double sided tape.

RAM voltage is set in the base nvram file maintained in the EFI firmware. For those using DDR3L, It should be possible to lower the Mac pro’s voltage settings for the ram allocated to each CPU.

seems like a plan, but I shall leave mine as is, nice and cool and fast enough, ram voltage is never 100% stable anyway, even on my PC water cooled monster it does vary and ram voltage is prime for stability. but if your on the 1.35v DDR3 then must be worth a shot, run mem test in windows for 24hrs and if it don't show errors or fail the tests then I would say good to go.
An update, I decided to change the little 60mm fans to these
https://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/B009LEKGGE/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o01_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1
which are very good quality fans, and with a smaller motor body centre offer more cooling for there size. results are from this
To this, IOH has lost another 2.3c and all the dimms are now below 30c
a small improvement, but every little bit helps! so extra cooling project is now finished.
