The Module
The module is covered with two platinum-plated copper heatspreaders which is certainly eye-catching. You will want to only hold the module by the sides because fingerprints show up very easily on the burnished surface.

Front of the module
The white label confirms that this is truly the OCZ PC4800 Platinum Elite Edition module with a capacity of 512MB and dual rated timings of 2.5-4-4-10 and 2-2-2-5.

The front heatspreader also sports an embossed logo, which really matches the mirror finish of the platinum-plated heatspreader. They make the module look classy, without going overboard.
In the back, there's nothing, except for the embossed OCZ logo.

Back of the module
Peeking under the heatspreaders, we noticed nothing out of the ordinary. The memory chips were all properly taped to the heatspreaders.

Under the heatspreaders
Of course, the heatspreaders are not merely held in place by thermal tape. Two stainless steel clips keep the heatspreaders firmly attached.

It's difficult to remove the heatspreaders and you risk damaging the module. Please note that removing the heatspreader automatically voids the module's lifetime warranty. So, don't attempt it unless you absolutely MUST peek at the memory chips.
