On the picture above let's first consider `clientHeight`: it's easier to evaluate. There's no horizontal scrollbar, so it's exactly the sum of what's inside the borders: CSS-height `200px` plus top and bottom paddings (`2*20px`) total `240px`.
Now `clientWidth` -- here the content width is not `300px`, but `284px`, because `16px` are occupied by the scrollbbar. So the sum is `284px` plus left and right paddings, total `324px`.

**If there are no paddings, then `clientWidth/Height` is exactly the content area, inside the borders and the scrollbar (if any).**

And there's one more reason: a scrollbar. Sometimes the code that works fine without a scrollbar starts to bug with it, because a scrollbar takes the space from the content in some browsers. So the real width available for the content is *less* than CSS width. And `clientWidth/clientHeight` take that into account.
...But with `getComputedStyle(elem).width` the situation is different. Some browsers (e.g. Chrome) return the real inner width, minus the scrollbar, and some of them (e.g. Firefox) -- CSS width (ignore the scrollbar). Such cross-browser differences is the reason not to use `getComputedStyle`, but rather rely on geometry propeties.

If your browser reserves the space for a scrollbar (most browsers for Windows do), then you can test it below.
