    Yea there are risers but they are a PITA for stability. From testing I’ve seen, you can get them in one time and they work just fine. You take them out, put them back in, now there’s a chance your PC will just not work right anymore.

      How often do you take your RAM out and put it back in?

      But yeah, I see your overall point about reliability.

        Well yea but imagine having an issue in your PC at that point. It would create so much more guesswork and headaches imo, but if it’s all you have it’s all you have

      I vaguely recall using them once for some project eons ago and I must have been lucky, because they just worked. This was back in the DDR2 days though, I think. Like I said, back when dinosaurs were still roaming the Earth.
