Hi,
I am new to this community. I have a ryzen 5 1600 paired to gigabyte AB350 Gaming 3 mobo and corsair 16gb ram (single stick). I have had ram problems with this stick before, like, I was not able to run it at 3000mhz ram it only ran at 2133mhz.But I recently updated to F8 bios version and with few tweaks I was able to hit 2800mhz.Two days, it ran well. Today, when I switch on my pc, it does not post. When I open my case, I see that the CPU led and DRAM led alternatively blinks, but mostly it is in CPU. Few people in this community also had this issue.
I tried :-

1.clearing CMOS battery and jumper
2.Different ram slots

But to no success. Any help will be deeply appreciated.

If memory serves me correctly in order to enable the dual-channel mode, you must install two or four memory modules. When installing two memory modules, use the first and third memory slots to enable dual-channel mode.
