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 TridentZ 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 metal bar 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. Our type of DIMM have a black aluminum strip on the front side and a subtle grey at the backside.
  

G.Skill may (correct me if I am wrong) be using a PCB with ten layers with a total of two say ounces of copper? Once you power up the PC the DIMMs jump into a default configuration, an RGB rainbow wave effect. Really cool.
