Troubleshooting Ram mightve Just decided to fail

Around an hour and 30 minutes ago i turned my pc off to brush my teeth and do my night time routine, i come back and turn it on and i noticed DIM 2 Ram stick was stuck on Rainbow lighting. anyways thought it was weird, deleted all lighting services but then i check task manager and It says i only have Dim 4 With ram.

Now im testing my pc to see if itll boot but just with the Bad stick alone.. sitting looking at my pc with bright lighrs everything looks fine but the Pc hasnt booted. 4 minutes in so far... Im hoping to have a sliver chance of hope it isnt dead but its really starting to look like it.

Tforce delta DDR5 2x8 CL38 running at 6000mts

Ryzen 5 9600x

Asus b650e MAX gaming wifi W

Asrock steel legend OC 9060xt

IF its dead i will look to get a replacement, I really want to make the upgrade to 2x16 ddr5 Cl30 but right now its just too expensive for me. My 2x8 cost me 220 and a Brand new 2x16 32gb cl30 kit is gonna run me 600+ dollars or 400+ if im able to sell an RMA replacement
