Module heightiHeight of one module from the bottom edge of the contacts to the top, with the heat spreader and light bar as sold. It decides the clearance under large CPU air coolers. This is the vertical height standing in the slot, not the board thickness. Makers write L x W x H, and some call the standing height W. Use the middle number of the three. A size with only two numbers gives length and height, so the smaller is the height. The longest is the module length and the smallest the thickness.

AIDA64 memory test (measured)iAIDA64 Cache and Memory Benchmark results from a reviewer, one row per tested kit and setting. Read, write and copy are in MB/s as AIDA64 prints them, where 1 MB is 1,048,576 bytes. Results depend on the CPU and board, so compare rows from the same CPU only. AIDA64 switches a result of 100 GB/s or more to GB/s, where 1 GB is 1024 MB, so 113.64 GB/s is stored as 116367 MB/s, rounded to a whole MB/s. The printed figure goes in the source note.

Values are printed on the review charts. Row 1 is XMP profile 1 at 9600 MT/s and row 2 is XMP profile 2 at 9000 MT/s, both on automatic settings in Gear 4. Row 3 is the reviewer's 9000 MT/s manual overclock in Gear 2 with tighter timings that the review does not state. A single AIDA64 screenshot of the 9600 XMP run in the review reads 115.71 GB/s read, 92847 MB/s write, 103.08 GB/s copy and 93.1 ns, so runs vary. The review lists XMP 2 as CL42-58-58 and the maker sheet as 42-56-56-144. The stored 42-58-58-141 is what the module SPD and the reviewer's timing screenshot show.
