Hello,
and thank you for taking the time reading my question.

I build a new PC and i have noticed that one of my RAM is freezing Windows (clean install windows 10). No matter if it's Dual-Channel or Single-Channel.
I tried all slots on the Mobo and it keeps crashing on it, while the other one is working on every slot and single.
I don't know where the problem lies because Memtest86 ran for 12 hours and couldnt find any errors on the problem RAM.
The computer currently running the system on the single RAM that works without problems, but i would prefer a dual Channel set-up.
It's really weird because i tried trouble shooting the other hardware and finding out that just 1 RAM is making the system crash is really bizzare.
Also yea there is no error message when window hard-freezes, there is the windows loading symbol around the mouse and then RIP, it hard freezes. (mobo is not responding, tried pressing "num" on the Numpad without response)

Specs:
Mobo: Asus Rog Strix B350-f gaming
GPU: nVidia gtx 1060 -3gb
RAM: 2x 8gb Corsair Vengeance 2400MHZ (cmk16gx4M2A2400C16) (16-16-16-39)
CPU: Ryzen 5 1600 (not Overclocked @3.2ghz)
PSU: beQuiet pure Power 600W (new, i tried changing that before)
OS: Windows 10 64-bit
 
Solution
It's probably a bad ram module issue, the slots are working, no OS issue, no BIOS Bug, then it must be something in the ram module.
Instead of trying to troubleshoot it yourself, i recommend you to contact Corsair's customer support.
