Hi
I have msi Z97 gaming 3 mobo with it 4670k
Was working fine but now the first 2 ram slots"from the right" aren't working and the last 2 "next to cpu" working fine
When I plug any ram stick in the first 2 slots the mobo keep powering on and off "stays on for around 2 sec with no data or sounds"
I donno why sadly there is no official service provider for msi in my country to fix it
So I gave it to a repair store a week ago and he still can't find the problem
Notice. Ram sticks are fine . Tried single and dual ram sticks same problem
The pc boots to the windows fine when the ram is plugged in the last 2 slots single ch

Do you have ddr4 ram by chance? If yes then you need to buy ddr3 ram (1333/1600mhz)
