Is it even fucking possible to get 16GB of DDR3 RAM without these fucking stupid heatspreaders?

You mean on a single chip?

No. I just want 2 8GB sticks without all this heatspreader bullshit.
It seems like the RAM without the gay covers is even more expensive.
Look for kingston. They have heat spreaders but they have a fairly low profile
>>51806405
why do you honestly care? just get some Generic heatspreaders off ebay.

crucial ballistix sport are very low profile
Heatspreaders are removable, ya dingus.
>>51806405
kingston makes these
look for anything that's called "value ram".
Which are literally the same shit but without memespreaders hence lower price/GB
Why don't you just remove the heat spreaders and shut the fuck up already?
They do bum fuck all presuming your case has some semblance of airflow.
Git gud.

I still haven't seen an ECC stick with an heat spreader
>>51806405
I picked up a 1.35v ddr3 8gb module with no heatspreader from ebay so yea, it is possible.

Wouldn't they be a pain to remove? I imagine there is paste between the spreader and every chip.
>>51806899
most companies just use thermal pads across the entire heat spreader. it's pretty simple to remove
