The heat-spreader is designed to enhance heat dissipation allowing better tweaks and overclocks, albeit does anyone really OC their memory these days? I mean that's what you purchase more expensive XMP memory for right, as the tweaking was done for you already. The RGB theme as a result this is not low profile memory though. The idea is that heat is moved away from the actual memory chips and this increases potential overclocking and stability.

Still with this design any cooler in close vicinity of the memory should install just fine. Thanks to that design the memory is very sturdy and can be inserted into the DIMM slots with ease. This memory is also about good looks so I decided to throw in these extra photos as these photo above says it all really.

Teamgroup may (correct me if I am wrong) be using a PCB with eight layers with a total of two say ounces of copper? So yes, I have seated this memory on a X299 in dual-channel. Above X299 STRIX ASUS motherboard, that's pretty much how that looks like with two DIMMs. Once you power up the PC the DIMMs jump into a default configuration, an RGB rainbow wave effect is rotating through the primary colors.

Setting up (configuring) this memory is very easy, in the BIOS just flick the XMP 2.0 compatible profile, and you'll be up and running at advertised speeds. The memory itself is optimized for the Intel X99/Z170/Z270/X299 platform with corresponding Skylake/ Kaby lake and Core X architecture series processors. Teamgroup mentioned that they are working on the AMD Ryzen platform support as we speak
