Hi, My motherboard is Gigabyte X570 UD, in the motherboard manual it says, for optimum Dual channel performance, the ram sticks has to be installed in A2/B2.
And why not A1/B1?, which is not mentioned?
 
Solution
its to do with how CPU is attached to the RAM lanes ,
I think Gigabyte use Daisy chain and those lanes are possibly faster than the other 2, even thought the chart above that statement also shows you can use A1 & B1 for 2 sticks, they may not run as fast.

Thanks a lot guys, i use a Corsair vengeance 3000MHZ 2x16 gb sticks, i used to get blue screen while playing Warzone sometimes, initially it was installed in A1/B1, now after referring, Motherboard, i have installed it in the A2/B2 slot. i hope this solves my problem. i even ran the windows diagnostics but it didnt find fault in my RAM.
