So I just renewed my heat paste of my CPU cooler. To do this I had to take out the RAM sticks.

I plugged everything back in and now when I start my PC, the light on the mobo that indicates that there is a problem with the system is lightning up and stays (in this case it's yellow which means there is a problem with the RAM)

I tried everything, from using one stick on every DIMM Slot to switching both DIMM Slots Back and for. Does anybody know why it says that there's a problem with my RAM (English not first language, sry if there are mistakes :))

Specs:
Mobo: ASUS Z270F
CPU: i5 7600K
RAM: Vengeance 2x8GB @3000mhz
 
Solution
Check the memory slots and the memory modules for any damage, dust, dirt, paste etc.

Remove CPU and thoroughly check the CPU and its socket for any damage, dust,dirt, paste etc. If OK then remount CPU carefully and evenly. Uneven mounting of CPU can cause memory and other system problems.
