It sounds like you have Dual Channel memory slots. That's
probably why the slots are color coded the way they are. I bet
you could also put sticks in slots 2,3,4 and it would still
work. But it would be in single channel mode.

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.
