I just bought 8g (4 pieces) of CORSAIR XMS2 DHX http://www.newegg.com/Product/Prod [...] 6820145194 the memory on my Asus Rampage Formula. Looking at it though, the heat shields seem very thick and the sockets are very close together on the MB. Am I going to have a space problem? Has anyone set up something similar?
