that looks like standard height ram
its rdimm, since you bought it for a server that makes sense, but it won't work on consumer boards

Yes, I just started to try it out, the test results are not bad, I am ready to buy another piece, I have three servers ready to be replaced.
I see 
We are eager to find Very Low Profile ram in this thread - if you find any VLP UDIMMs let us know (the ram shouldn't be taller than the clips on the ram slot)

Those aren't VLP (very low profile). VLP ram is no higher than the ram socket latches.
edit: woops, somehow I missed the last page before replying. Can't delete the post, so added this edit.
So got mine all set up with my 8700T which I reckon could be run passive. This thing idles at like 20-25 degrees! Can't wait to get my Black Ridge hooked up in my Dan A4 V3
So what's the height of those purple low profile ADATA U-DIMMs from the first page? Are they usable for regular DIMM slots?
I'm using ADATA XPG 3000MHz right now as those are just low enough to not interfere with my heatsink, so for my current build I'm fine. Still, good to know these are around.
Angled DIMM-slots for mini-ITX would be preferable though, it's a mystery to me why nobody does that when these motherboards are all rated 95+W (=big-ass heatsinks required)

My post above I have the ADATA purple VLP DIMMs on an ITX board.
They are the height of the DIMM slot clips, no higher.
What do mean by angled? As in lying horizontally like Laptop memory?
I think a few enterprise boards use those, but in ITX, the space used by that would actually be greater than standard LP DIMMs and occupy too much PCB space. Most systems don't actually have any height restrictions to necessitate LP or VLP memory, I think the Black Ridge is one of the first heatsinks to offer benefits when used like this.

congrats on getting yours, now im less stressed about my own
You can see by my testing here that the adata ram is fairly overclockable. The issue is not the speed, but the latency
it will be among the highest latency kits available since the timings are pretty loose.My final timings were 18-19-19-19-39-58, at 1.35v, 3200mhz

perhaps i spoke too soon
got ddr4 sodimms like @confusis did
There are the Innodisk! Unbuffered, 2666MHz, 16gb no ECC, VLP. But the retailers I've found in UK cannot ship in Belgium...I see

I bought mine from Simms UK, they ship to EU countries. It's not a retail store but you can contact them through the form on their site. Shipping is very expensive though, almost 50€.
