I own a ASUS Z170-A LGA 1151 Intel Z170 HDMI SATA 6Gb/s USB 3.1 USB 3.0 ATX Intel Motherboard. What are the best slots to put my DDR4 Trident z 3200 Mhz RAM in?

Thank you and have a nice day :)

THIS x100000000. Read the manual!

How many sticks do you have? Most likely, it will have two different colors. Put the two sticks in the same color.

So it should go like this: 0101...0 could be white, and 1 could be black. Put the sticks in both zero slots. Hope that makes sense.
 


Slots 1 and 3. That is the slot closest to your CPU and then you skip one slot before you install the other module.

 


You took the words out of my head. I was going to offer that advice and then saw all Asus has for that board's page is a quickstart manual. LAZY!
