recently i decided to upgrade from 8 gigs of memory to 32 gigs and when i received the ram i wen to install it but it did not work after some testing i have come up with the following results
does not work with both new sticks or one of either stick however it works with the old stick and one new stick where it does recognize the new stick as task manager shows 24 gig present
i have tried unplugging and reinserting all ram sticks and the gpu multiple times as well as resetting the computer multiple times
i have tried resetting the cmos battery but that has not worked
i have checked and the ram is compatible with my motherboard
specs:
hp erica 2 motherboard
ryzen 3 3200g
rx 580 8 gig
1 tb seagate hdd
old ram 8 gig 2667mhz (one stick)
new ram 32 gig 3200mhz (two sticks)
UPDATE:
i figured out that it was my cpu as the ryzen 3 3200g only supports 2933 mhz and when my 3200mhz ram tried to run with it it did not boot but when i used it with my old 2667mhz ram it worked. i was already planning on getting a new cpu and the one i will be getting is the ryzen 7 3700x which does support 3200mhz
i will update when it arrives if i have any issues and thank you to all who have tried to help you are very much appreciated.
