Memory slots are probably best if populated in order (1, 2, 3, 4).
However, with many boards, order does not seem to matter.
I eliminate the guesswork by following the instructions in the motherboard
manual. For my board Asus says populate in this order, 1, 3, 2, 4. In fact
memory slots 1 and 3 are blue in color and slots 2 and 4 are black in color
to give further hints and reminders. Pairs are not required. Currently I
have 1024's in slots 1, 3 and 2 and it is running fine. I said that to
indicate that if I want to reduce my RAM to 2048 I will remove the stick
from slot 2, not from slot 3.
Thanks,
Chuck
