Question Ram Issue

[Binoj Pillai]

I first installed RAM in A2B2 slot, after 11 month -1 year it stopped working,
then moved the RAM to A1B1 Slot and the RAM started working again and then stopped after sometime,
then again i moved the RAM to A2B2 and it started working again.

This issues keeps happening multiple time not sure what's the reason.

The issues shows up when booting the system. there is no issues when using the system and even memory diagnostic (win 11) did not show any issues.

Ryzen 5 3600

Sounds like a memory training issue. The motherboard does it only during boot time. Have you tried Memory Retry if your Mobo has it?
Set that to 3, 5 or 7 tries.
You could also try updating your BIOS. Maybe that will do something, maybe not.

A question to you. You list 2 slots but in your config there is only 1 RAM stick. I assume you have 2 sticks. Is that correct? On most motherboards, A2/B2 slots are the correct slots to use for 2 sticks. Check your Motherboard manual.

Are these 2 ram sticks a kit or 2 sticks you bought separate?

Post a link to the ram you bought.
