Your setup includes a 4GB and an 8GB RAM stick. After rearranging them, you're wondering if moving the 8GB closer to the CPU will improve overall performance.

depends on your general schedule if it varies in timing and speed the system will use the shortest time.

It didn't turn on after you changed the sticks... Was it always that way or is this a new issue?

It doesn't matter where you place them in a 2 slot MBP. You might just need to clean the slots. Also, using dual channel with two sticks that have different KVRs isn't ideal.
