DIMM_B1 and DIMM_C1 in the first place to enjoy 3-channel function.

Open the two plastic clips of memory slots then push down the module vertically into
the slot. See to it that the hole of the module fit into the notch of the slot;
The two plastic clips will automatically close if the memory module is fitted in a
proper way.
