It's curious that XMP supports 3600MHz only in the 2nd and 4th slots, not the 1st and 3rd (for two sticks). If I start the PC with RAM only in the 1st and 3rd slots, the board will display a message suggesting I move to the 2nd and 4th slots for better performance. It seems like it might be related to MSI's motherboard design. I'm not entirely sure if the issue lies with the board or the IMC.

Usually, a board using daisy chain design suggests RAM placement in slots 2 and 4.

yea but if it's a board issue then getting a better CPU with stronger IMC wont solve it, no?

No, T-topology isn't limited to only high-end boards with HEDT chipsets. It can be used on various systems depending on the design and requirements.

They appear on consumer and HEDT forums, but they're rare on consumer boards. How can this be a board issue? The 1 and 3 settings aren't functioning well, which is typical for daisy-chain topologies. The 4 dimmer settings put more strain on the imc, possibly affecting its frequency stability compared to fewer sticks. If you're upgrading your CPU, it might come with a better-imc design.
