Question New PC. RAM issues

[antondrab]

Hi all,

Just complete the build of my PC.

Ryzen 7 5800x
MSI B550 Tomahawk
G.Skill Trident Z RGB DDR4 3600 (16Gb x 2) kit
Palit GeForce 3070

And I have an issue with my RAM.

When both of them are inserted my PC boots and every 5-10 seconds screen is flicking with a black screen. After 5-15 minutes I can see BSOD with memory_management reason.
Memtest has got 10k+ errors only at test #6 in this case.

Then I've tried to check them one by one and discovered that the first one is working fine. No issues with loading and using my PC.
Memtest has got no errors too in this case.

The second one is just to get my PC to the main page and freezes/failed with BSOD.
Memtest has got 10k+ errors again only at test #6 in this case.

I have tried different RAMs in different slots, the results are the same.

Does that mean that I have got one RAM broken from this kit?

Thank you for the replies

Sounds like one stick is bad. It does happen. Had it happen on a crucial 2x16gb kit, at work, not all that long ago.

Thank you for the response.

Just tested this RAM stick in another build and it works fine.

So again, in my build, the first RAM stick is working fine in any slot. And the second RAM stick is working with errors in any slot (and working fine in another build)

Any suggestions on this?

You could try a bios update.

Thank you for keeping responding.

Unfortunately, this didn't fix the issue

CMOS reset?

Just tried to do this
The situation is still the same
