A Closer Look
The Team Group T-Create Classic 10L sticks feature a very simple profile with angular, stamped heat spreaders.
These sticks have a gray heatspreader that has a simple outline, but lots of stamped lines and angles for more detail.
The Team Group T-Create Classic 10L sticks are rated for 3200 MHz at 22-22-22-52 and 1.2 V by default, no XMP profile or overclocking required. "DDR4 Classic" features on the right side of each stick.
"T-CREATE" is printed on the center of each stick, as well as across the top.
The Team Group T-Create Classic 10L sticks are double-sided and use SK Hynix CMR 2 GB ICs on a PCB with 10 layers for added stability.
I like to weigh a stick from each kit I get as the difference in mass can be pretty drastic between kits. Mass is not the best indicator of cooling efficiency because material can matter, and of course, heat dissipation is reliant on surface area, not volume or mass. That said, it is still interesting to compare.
The Team Group T-Create Classic 10L comes in at 34.11 g on my scale, which is on the high end. The aluminium heat spreader is thicker than most, and the gray aluminium insert adds a fair bit of mass. For height, the Team Group T-Create Classic 10L comes in at almost 33.06 mm with my calipers, which is well below the average 45–50 mm. This kit will be great for systems where cooler clearance is a concern.
