  • Width of the Trident Headspreaders ?

    Hi!

    How much is the witdh of the Trident Headspreaders?

    Are the Trident Heatspreaders of this Model F3-12800CL7T2-12GBTDD
    greater (more expanded/more width) than my G.Skill F3-12800CL7T2-12GBPI CL7?

    The Problem is:

    when i remove the first (of my 6x2GB) Mem's and place a Fan on my Prolimatech Mega Shadow cooler - it fit short.

    (I cant use a Fan in the front of my Mega Shadow because the PI's have so high Heatspreaders. So i want to replace the PI's with a 3x4GB Kit)

    Thank you very much for your help!

    Width is all the same, still the standard size module. The real difference is height.

    3 x 4GB RipJaws should fit no problem. Trident is still very tall.

      Thank you!

      1:
      The Trident height is the same like the PI's right?
      (on the left and right side of the HS).

      2:
      do have the Trident Mem' a better cooling soolution than the PI's ?
      Or have they the same effectiveness?

      THX!

        1. No, the Trident is a little shorter. PI/PIS = 55mm Trident = 53mm

        2. They are about the same effectiveness
