My RAM was in these two slots and the computer was running fine but I read online that they should be in the same...

1080 and a water cooled cpu. You'd think user would know something about computers with this kind of setup. I bet he doesnt even overclock

Dude. Put them in A2 and B2. It isn't that hard. Make sure it double snaps. The first time I reinstalled my ram I didn't push it hard enough. So only one side clicked in. But u have to put in in slot 2 and 4. not 1 and 3. And 1 and 2 or 3 and 4 is for single channel.

Lol first time I installed it backward and ended up fried it

Is this bait?
