Hey guys,
Bit a weird one and may be a bit fo a read but the more detail the eaiser to understand. Had 2 issues old one is resolved but will mention as it may be relavent in this current issue I have.
To answer a few of the simple question that I will get later.
.Rams have always been in A2 and B2.
.Ram have been seated correctly.
.GPU temerature peaks 60 degrees
.CPU temperature peaks <80
.RAM temperature <40 degrees
.BIOS: 7D91vH9 - released 23-11-08
Build a new PC in April with following specs:
GPU: Gigabyte 4070 ti
CPU: Intel i7 13700KF
RAM: Teamgrop Delta ddr5 6800mhz (2x 16GB)
Motherbaord: MSI z790 Edge wifi ddr5
PSU: Seasonic Focus GX-850 Gold
PC was working flawlessly with XMP on for about 6 months then suddently I started getting boot looped. Could however boot with XMP off. Determined that 1 of the ram sticks was faulty/died. Came to this conclusion by testing 1 stick at a time in the PC and booting with XMP. 1 of the sticks would allow and the other would boot loop instead. Thought that it was just an unlucky event and got new ram. This is my new and current issue. ALSO NOTE THAT THE RAM THAT WAS FAULTY WAS IN SLOT B2.
The new ram is just a version above the previous ram I had. Now my specs are:
GPU: Gigabyte 4070 ti
CPU: Intel i7 13700KF
RAM: Teamgrop Delta ddr5 7200mhz (2x 16GB) - only change
Motherbaord: MSI z790 Edge wifi ddr5
PSU: Seasonic Focus GX-850 Gold
Installed new, enable XMP can boot. When I'm playing games however the game either closes or the system restarts. Troubleshooted this and turns out I need to use a lower DRAM frequency. Cool I set my XMP on and set DRAM to 6800MHZ and everything is working as intended. Can now play games without crashing wile XMP is turned on.
Throughout this whole process of figuring out why I can't run games with XMP on 7200(3-4 days) I alway could always see on the system that there is 2 RAMs connected and be telling me that I have 32gb ram. Once I came to the conclusion that I can play on 6800mhz, I set it to that and played games for a few hours. Once I was done I realized the tak manager processes tab was now stating ''slots used: 1 of 4" and that I have 16gb memory.
To test if one of the RAM sticks was either not seated correctly or again died someshow, I plugged only 1 stick in at a time. 1 of sticks booted and functioned as intended. The 2nd stick would not boot. The pc turns on but screen remains black with DRAM light on motherboard.
To further test this I tested the working RAM in every slot and the PC would boot each time and work.
I test the 'faulty' ram in each slot and the PC would turn on with DRAM light on motherboard and screen remains black. The RAM RBG turns on meaning its drawling power but just doesnt work?
Coinsidently enough this stick was plugged into B2 slot of the motherboard, the same slot where the previous RAM turned out to be 'faulty'.
Has anyone ever experienced this? Do I just have a bad brand of RAM? Do i need to replace any componted which could be casuing this?
I don't understand how this brand new RAM died/broke. If it was a PSU issue wouldnt it fry both rams? If it is a motherboard issue with slot B2?
Appriciate any help.
Thanks.
