B550 MSI Tomahawk RAM Slots

[Evilmethod666]

Hi

Had my B550 MSI Tomahawk mobo delivered yesterday and just noticed that the retaining tabs on the RAM slots that you would normal clip back before install your RAM are fixed on one side for all 4 slots? It looks intentional and hard to say if I will have any issues when I go to install some RAM but just wanted to check if this is normal for these boards or if I need to return?

I've had boards with slots like that, you only unclick one side of the slot.. Will all be fine

It is usually on the PCI-E side, that way the tabs don't hit the graphics card.
