I have 6 GB of ram (1 stick is 4Gb and 2nd one is 2GB) installed in my PC with Windows 10 64bit installed and working fine for many time. Yesterday when I checked my PC info and it was only showing 4GB ram installed so I replaced the slots of both rams with each other. When I started my PC it started giving ram beeps so I tried installing one ram stick at a time in both slots and but same beep was coming. but after few time when I installed back both rams my started working normally again. So I want to ask that what could be the cause of this issue? please help
 
Seems like the 2GB stick of ram said goodbye.

We're going to need a little more information. Please list the specs to your build like so:
CPU:
Motherboard:
Ram:
SSD/HDD:
GPU:
PSU:
Chassis:
OS:

Also, you're advised not to mix and match sticks of ram. In stead work with a matched set of sticks or a ram kit to ensure you're working in dual channel mode for your memory(resulting in better performance).
 
But now both rams are working fine and there is 6GB ram shown in windows and in bios also. Full details are as under:

CPU: Core i3, 3220
Motherboard: Intel DH61WW
Ram: 2 Rams of Kingston (4GB and 2 GB)
SSD/HDD: WD 500GB
GPU: Sapphire Rx560 4GB GDR3
PSU: 400W
Chassis:
OS: Windows 10. 64 Bit
