This is true using integrated graphics from the cpu or from a video card. The video card is from a different PC so is known...

I know it's RAM- related issue, but I don't know what it is, and I don't have extra DDR5 kit to test if both sticks I have are faulty. Things I've tried: Reseated rams (Pushing down any further will probably break them) Removed 1 stick and tried the other in all of the slots, except A1...
