Looking for 8gb RAM sticks that aren't enormous.

Marvin_Flamenco · Mar 23, 2017

I have a very small case and I'm looking to upgrade my DDR3 DIMM ram but all the 8gb sticks I see are physically really huge. Is this just the nature of the beast or are there some more compact options that I'm having trouble finding?

Crucial Ballistix (tactical) LP
Corsair Vengeance LP
Kingston HyperX Fury
GeIL Evo Leggera

Of course you can only influence the height of the kits not the length

Have you looked into low profile DDR3? Is it the height that is the problem?

Robert Cook :

It is definitely the height, The optical drive sits right above the top of my 4gb sticks.

Crucial has some very low profile that should work fine. the corsair vengeance really is not that low profile. you want multiple 8GB sticks or one 8GB stick>?

Robert Cook :

2 sticks - looking for 16gb. Doing lots of audiovisual editing and looking for some headroom.

Corsair Vengeance LP are 26.25mm
That is low profile in my book.

Ballistix LP are 25mm

Isokolon :

sorry you are right, I was looking at the default vengeance somehow.

Yeah default vengeance are huge.

Couldn't find details to the vlp Ballistix though.
They look almost non existent.
