1. Locate the RAM slots on your motherboard (typically 2 or 4 slots near the CPU). 2. Press down the retention clips on both ends of the RAM slot(s) you'll be using. 3. For dual-channel configuration, install RAM in slots 2 and 4 (check your motherboard manual for optimal configuration). 4. Align the notch on the RAM module with the key in the RAM slot - it will only fit one way. 5. Press down firmly on both ends of the RAM module until the retention clips click into place. 6. The RAM should be fully seated with clips locked on both sides. 7. After booting, verify RAM is running at correct speed in BIOS/UEFI (enable XMP/DOCP for advertised speeds). Note: RAM requires significant force to fully seat - you should hear two distinct clicks when properly installed. If using 2 sticks, consult your motherboard manual for the correct slots to enable dual-channel mode.
