Hello.
I have had an issue with my computer for quite some time ago, actually occurred last spring when i was changing fluids on my pc. So back then I changed my fluids, the loop and added an T block so I could change faster next time. So I basically tore off my CPU, GPU, and RAM sticks and reinstalled them. After that my pc wouldnt boot and would be stuck on POST.
I realized that my RAM sticks caused it. I would get error codes 01, 03 and 55 on my asus motherboard. So I looked through some internet forums with people having same type of issue and did some troubleshooting. After awhile I figured that my PC would ONLY boot with RAM sticks in slots B1 or B2 or both. I tested with every 4 RAM sticks and every slots and everytime the same results, would only boot with sticks in slots B1 or B2 or both.
So the issue is not my ram sticks. I didnt have and still dont have any clue that where the issue could be. Probaly just faulty hardware ? I tried to reset CMOS, press the little "ramOK!" button on motherboard several times, I tried without GPU plugged in and i tried to unplug everything except SSD with win10, MB, CPU and RAMS. Didnt work. I checked for bent or broken pins under CPU, none. I used air to clear from any dust, nothing. I checked if my 24pin had something wrong but seemed fine. Basically I think that I have done everything possible. Please do tell if theres something more to try tho!
But anyways, today after about 6months later (Ive been using 2RAM sticks till now) I thought that ey, mayyybe it corrected itself and would work now, how dumb I was ofcourse it doesnt work and now I am bothered about it again. Ive been meaning to try one of my friends CPU if the problem is in CPU becourse it has to be either CPU or motherboard right ? But we have not been able to do that since he lives quite far from me and is in army right now. I dont think I can send my MB back to asus since the warranty is over since summer.
So my question is, now that I think I am ready to purchase some new hardware for my PC should I go for new MB or CPU really dont want to purchase both and kind off hoping the problem to be on motherboard.
