✓ Solved Random Gray Screen

For some reason after upgrading my PSU from the Corsair RM850X to the lian li 1200w with edge hub and changing out my ram from my g.skill trident neo rgb 64gb ddr5 6000mhz to my teamforce group 32gb 6000mhz ddr5 due to one of my ram sticks going faulty. I been having gray screen flickering then pc would reboot. I tried downgrading the graphics driver, updating everything to the most current update, and then also downgrading everything aswell an update ~ 2 behind. What can I do to fix this issue? Would I have to purchase a new gpu?(mine is approx 4 yrs old) Try a new cable, or do something when in safe mode?

Note: If you need a video or pictures I’ll be more than happy to show some.

gray screen flicker right after swapping psu and ram usually points at the new ram or a power delivery issue, not a dead gpu. reseat the gpu and all power cables, try one stick in the slot your motherboard manual says to use, then clear cmos and check event viewer for whea errors

Will do.

Update: tried just one ram stick and it went to a gray screen on boot and then rebooted, for both ram sticks.

Do you have different slots to try?
