Solution
if it's failing at the start it's generally a RAM issue, you can switch brands - or in extreme cases go with Samsung b-die RAM, running a single stick also defeats dual channel so your RAM takes a 15% performance hit - not that it should fail in Prime though - in rare cases it could be your CPU
this is the result of RAM not being fully stable at the XMP setting. try running it @2933Mhz or 2666Mhz first - usually this goes away once you lower clocks. Then you can manually adjust settings if you desire - P.S. it's not necessarily the RAM but a limitation of 2nd gen motherboard with that RAM

ok so i tried the ram frequencies u said and the problem still exists could it be some hardware issue because i get deformed bluecreens(the resolution and text is weird at time like deformed) is there any other fix i can try
