A heat spreader does not always bring the temperature down. Rather than that, it moves the heat from the chips to the PCB, distributes it more evenly throughout the module, and eliminates potential hot spots. Theoretically, this should allow better overclocking.

Patriot equips the Viper Venom DDR5 memory modules with an aluminum heat spreader with a matte black color with some aluminum accents. It looks attractive and should make this memory kit appear nice in a build.

The total height of the stick is about 43 mm/1.69 inches. That’s a low-profile module, so you shouldn’t encounter problems with air coolers, but, as always, we recommend double-checking whether any clearance issues won’t occur before you buy this set.

Ok, here are the last shots of this nice memory kit.   The module’s weight is 51 g, so the radiator seems quite solid. Let’s proceed to the next page.
