Problem solved, one of the sticks was faulty. Covered under the warranty.

It is unchecked, that was one of the first things I tried.

It says that I have 3,9/4.0GB of RAM in total.

I ran Memtest86 and it was the same story - 0 errors but sees only 4GB of physically available space even thouth "Memory SPD" tab is able to identify both sticks.

Not just compatibility as my RAM is on the mobo's QVL list. One stick appears to be half dead that's why I can't start my computer with it while the other works fine. Half dead because the mobo can read some info from the controller. Oh well, we'll see, time to RMA it.

So it's a chipset driver or a graphics driver? It's difficult to get more parts especially with an ultra budget build. But! I got my hands on a set of brand new HyperX Predators 2666 for a second and my motherboard posted immediately with both sticks running in dual chanel mode. I had no time...

I have the 5.50 BIOS with AGESA 1.0.0.6 which is meant to improve RAM support. To install 5.80 or 5.90 (5.90 introduces Ryzen 3000 support, I don't know wether I need that with my 1200) they want me to install "AMD all in 1 with VGA driver ver:18.50.16.01_WHQL", thing is - 18.50.16.01 is a...

That's what I thought and got suggested as well but if either CPU or mobo is bad then why everything works fine with one stick in either slot and doesn't even post with the second stick? Updating the BIOS is not that easy as ASRock's recommendations are not very clear...

I recommend you to keep digging because I think you have a deeper issue and misbehaving RAM slot is just a side effect.

And that's why it shows that I have just 3,93GB of RAM? I don't have an issue with frequency (well, a bit as XMP profile fails to load) but with capacity and running in single channel mode instead of dual channel.

I tried swapping the banks but I didn't try to start with just one stick of RAM in each slot. And I think I solved my issue - with one stick there was a post in both RAM slots but with the other there was no post whatsoever.

It should work, better or worse but there should be a post from the motherboard. You may have a faulty motherboard or bent pins on the CPU.

Hi, As my LGA775 mobo died I decided to do a little (and very budget oriented) upgrade - Ryzen 3, Asrock AB350M-HDV, 2x4GB Ballistix 2666 CL16 RAM. That RAM is on the QVL list of the motherboard, at least for Raven Ridge. CPU-Z or HWInfo64 readouts look perfectly normal: So what's wrong...

It's not about royalties, Intel still wants control and access to the source code of the device and I don't see AMD giving it to their competitor.

I replaced this capacitor, no improvement. Back to the starting point.
