I just upgraded my RAM from 8GB to 32GB and when I power on my PC, certain colors flicker green or red. I think my monitor isn’t the issue. I also tried updating the drivers but it didn’t fix the problem. Could you help with this? Here’s what I have about my setup: motherboard B365M DS3H, GPU NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1060 (6GB), CPU Intel i5-9600K, monitor Acer VG240Y, and the RAM I installed is Patriot Viper Steel 32GB DDR4 3200MHz CL16.

It might be the Displayport/HDMI cable that’s faulty (Try another cable in a different port). It could also be the monitor (Test with another one). The GPU might have failed due to static electricity during RAM installation (Test with a different GPU if possible).
