Hello!
So I've had my current setup for a little more than half a year now, and when I first set it up I had trouble booting it with both RAM sticks in (2x 8GB Corsair Vengance). At first I just booted it with one of the sticks, be because I thought to myself it might just be a BIOS error and that I'd fix it later on, and 8GB isn't all that bad anyways. Lately I've felt like I needed more RAM, and as I installed the second RAM stick, I encountered the same problem.
I've tried each stick of RAM seperately with XMP both off and on, and both worked, so none of them are defect. I found out that the system doesn't boot when I only put a stick in the one furthest away from the CPU, I think it is number 4, and it didn't work, but in the manual it says that only one RAM stick is supposed to go in the one closest to the CPU, so I'm not sure if it's a defect or not. (Probably isn't, honestly.)
Any answers would be great! I'll update if I find out anything
