Hi all,
Memory: Corsair Vengeance 8GB (2 x 4GB) DDR3-1600 Memory
Bought the above sticks real cheap used, and strongly considering one of the two has problems, to the point where I am thinking I should return them both.
Would really like an experts opinion here in this community since I am a PC novice here.
So the quick question is - if one of the two sticks causes the motherboard power to cycle on and off regularly in single RAM use without ever reaching the os desktop, and the other stick boots thru to desktop just fine by itself, then the RAM is obviously the problem here right, not any other pc part right??
Just would like a confirmation here is all
Also, is there any way to salvage/repair the RAM stick in question, or better just to return it for a refund and move on?
Thanks all for all time and help!
