Wish there was a standard for motherbords on how to put memories on the different channels and not one idea per vendor. Things have not gotten better since the early 1990s when i read Unix magazine on how to populate memory on a Unix workstation.
"Uh, put them on slot 1,3. Or 1 and 2, hey lets change it so you put them in 2 and 4. Hey wait - lets add letters after the channel names to confuse the user even more."
Fuckers.

@Ichinin@infosec.exchange As far as I understand it, it's the CPU manufacturer's fault, as the MB manifacturer simply wires the slot to the appropriate channel in the memory controller.
