No, you are correct, he installed the RAM incorrectly. For dual channle operation, it should be installed in slots 2 & 4 counting AWAY from the CPU.
It's on page 1-15 in his motherboard manual.

Are you saying the computer won't recognize the ram with it being in the 3/4 slots?

Nice build m8! looks quite a bit like mine with that cooler, a strix card, and the mobo :)

I have this kit and the red is nice and red http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16811980001

and yes, you need to move the left stick over one slot

Thanks for posting. I like that LED strip. I'll show it to him later tonight. Can you change the colors on it too?

What are you running your system? Post pics!
