Basically ive had a problem with my PC where my monitors shut down and all fans turn to 100%. Ive tried every single posible way to fix it, but nothing helped.

I decided to just to be safe to test RAM. And to my suprise i was met with thousands of errors on only 1 stick. I tested the same stick on all 4 slots and it failed on all consistently, while other ram stick passed.

Now how can i know if the issue is ram or cpu or mobo. I have 7700x and b650 mobo.

What should i do now. Do i just rma both sticks and see if that fixes my problem. Keep in mind i dont have any BSOD but this 1 stick keeps dropping errors.

Ive tried everything from this reddit post https://www.reddit.com/r/pcgamingtechsupport/comments/1bgic1l/screen_goes_black_and_fans_go_100/ as a fix and nothing worked. Would faulty ram had this effect on this problem. I need help.

And yes i ran memtest with default ram settings no xmp , i took out cmos battery before testing

RMA your ram sticks
Hopefully this is the issues, cause my last resort to figure out black screen issue was 1 by 1 replacing each component and see whats causing the issue. Ram being problem would be perfect cause i dont want to replace my 4070 gpu or psu, which would be my next guess for an issue.

If one of them gives an error and the package was 2 sticks, you will do a RMA on both
these are?
