- astrodust 7y agoIf DDR memory had screws I'm not sure we'd be happier. We'd be bitching all the time about the freaking tiny screws that kept getting lost in the case. I can't think of another standard made so deliberately difficult to install. A distant second is the 6/8 conductor PCIe power connectors that are a giant pain to use. Why couldn't they just force 8 for everyone and be done with it? Instead we have these crappy split connectors.
- diamondo25 7y agoI think it was made due to laptops. Everything has to be flat. Using clips like on DDR wouldnt really "fit" as then youd have a waste of space, and DDR is a generic component nowdays. The other option is to use PCI-E cards, of course.
