Question Slots 1 & 2 work but whenever I do dual channel it just gives me no signal

[NoGoodAnything]

Whenever I try to do dual channel the monitors will just give me no signal and a red light on my dram I have tried each stick there is nothing wrong with any of them I know this because they were in my computer before I upgraded to a new motherboard and CPU I heard that pin bending can be an issue and took a picture of this and wanted to know if this is the problem and if anyone can help me out because I want to put my 2 other sticks back in the computer.

Specs:
GPU: NVIDIA 3060
CPU: I-9 11900k
Motherboard: Asrock z590 pro4
Windows 10

Fixed: I winged it without a magnifying glass or anything I grabbed my trusty fork and was able to get the pin-up then I stabbed it a couple of times for good measure and was not able to properly seat it but got pissed and just said you know what maybe it works now and what do you know I have 4 sticks of working ram in my computer.

Yeah, that's clearly bent pin. Very badly bent.

So do you think that's the reason the ram is not working?

Quite possible. Is that the only thing that does not work?

Yep literally the only problem with the computer everything works fine I even benchmarked my computer and the CPU got and 103%

So I would say 99% its the pin that's tied to memory control.

Do you have any tips on how I can fix this without snapping the pin off and making things worse

Based on that pic, it looks to be bent over completely backwards?

If so, that is going to be a hard fix.
I've fixed bent Intel pins before, but not bent at that level.

I have never tried fixing a bent pin before the motherboard is brand new so I don't even know how the pin got so bent.

NOTE: It still gives me a red DRAM and BOOT light but it goes away in like a couple seconds.

That's normal, nothing to worry. Only when LED stays lit is signals a problem. Anyway, good job fixing it. Never heard anyone straightening pin with a fork!

I would not even call it straightening because It still looks obviously bent I literally feel like I did nothing just happy it works now will not be taking the CPU off anytime soon I can tell you that.
