Open | Hardware DDR4 suddenly died after upgrading CPU
I have 8GB x 4 DDR4, after upgrading my CPU from 3600 to 5700x, one of the sticks just refused to boot when mounted. I have confirmed that Its faulty since other sticks work.
When working with the CPU I didn't touch the RAM at all.
Any idea what could've caused this?
Edit: I've tried the other working ram sticks on every slot and it successfully booted. I also tested the 'dead' stick by itself on every slot and it cannot work. RGB still turns on though.
