Title says it all, i didnt get low profile RAM, my 212 evo doesn't fit in, when I adjust my S340 side panel doesn't fit on. Does anybody know if with this mobo, they have to be in specific channels?

Thanks,

Fin

You're using the wrong term, your board has 4 'slots' which run in dual 'channel'. The config is A-B-A-B for slots, where A-A is one dual channel and B-B is another. Assuming you have 1st and 3rd slot occupied currently, which's obstructing in cooler installation, you're on 1 dual channel, move each of your stick one place to 2nd and 4th slot, and you'll have the same config (albiet on different slots) as before.

A1-B1 or A2-B2 on your board (either 1st and 3rd slot, or 2nd and 4th slot). Your manual states that the second and fourth slots are actually preferable to 1 and 3 (although I doubt you'd see a difference). Anyway, you're good to go!
