Help Installing Ram

I have a few questions, they might be stupid, but meh am kinda a newbie, lol:

I have GeIL 4GB (2x2GB) PC2-8500C5 1066MHz Black Dragon DDR2, and an Asus Rampage Formula X48 mobo.

1. Do I need to removed the stickers on the sticks before I put them in, or can they just stay on, and trying to remove them may damage them?

2. Which DIMM do I plug the sticks into? Just the first two A1, and A2, or A1 and B1?

Cheers

You can leave the stickers on. Removing them can invalidate your warranty.

They'll need to go into the same coloured slots, preferable the first and third slots (so that one is in the slot closest to the CPU).

Cheers, thought removing them might cause a problem.

The stickers are generally very heat resistant anyway if that was what you were worried about.
