Memory clips

[Robert4]

I kinda have a newbie question but i recently installed 2 sticks of corsair ram, on my mobo, but i have a huge zalman fan which forced me to install both my sticks of ram on the last two slots of my mobo. In order for them to fit correctly i had to remove the head spreader clips from the memory. I was wondering will this harm the mem? Or will they stay on fine?

The heatspreaders are usually attached with thermal tape and the clips are there just for added support.

It should be fine with just the tape.

yeah, should be fine

there wasn't a warranty sticker covering it?
