Is something wrong with my RAM???

So I have recently started building my PC and I came across the problem where I had short circuited my motherboard on accident. The speaker I bought wasn't even beeping.

I replaced the motherboard and the speaker worked, which meant the motherboard had been fixed but there were 3 distinct beeps that told me that there was a problem with the RAM. I assumed I had short-circuited the RAM when I short circuited the motherboard and reordered the RAM.

Sidenote: for the motherboard and (now) the RAM I used an anti-static wristband to prevent the same mistake from happening.

Anyways, I replaced the RAM but i'm still getting the same 3 beeps and I made sure I didn't short circuit it! Any ideas what went wrong?

Here are the specs:

Intel - Pentium G4560 3.5GHz Dual-Core Processor
be quiet! - Pure Rock Slim 35.1 CFM CPU Cooler
ASRock - B250M-HDV Micro ATX LGA1151 Motherboard
Crucial - Ballistix Sport LT 8GB (2 x 4GB) DDR4-2400 Memory
Seagate - Barracuda ES 1TB 3.5" 7200RPM Internal Hard Drive
MSI - GeForce GTX 1050 Ti 4GB Video Card
MasterBox Lite 3.1 mATX Case
EVGA - 500W 80+ Bronze Certified ATX Power Supply

Thanks in advance!!

Try testing the ram out one stick at a time, and then in different ram slots just to be sure all ram sticks and slots on the mobo are working. Also, try removing your GPU and booting without it, just to make sure that's not the issue.
