I'm just spitballing but this seems like some production level or testing thing where you don't have to fuck up your test memory from repeated insertions
Also would be good for probing

To protect your motherboard. It boggles the mind how many more cheap, second-hand motherboards would be in circulation if these things were standard.

For me, it's converting 4 sticks into 1. Plus you can get another shorter version that fits underneath for the second slot

No.
As the other anons have already stated, it's a 1:1 DDR4 riser used to protect motherboard slots from repeated insertion cycles. You're supposed to put it in your motherboard and let it absorb the wear and tear from inserting RAM sticks.
That way if a RAM slot dies from physical wear, you just replace the $1 riser instead of the entire motherboard.
Kayden Richardson
that's beautiful
Connor Brown
whats the use case for extremely slow PCI-E?
