The machine has remained stable over the years. On the main BIOS page, the RAM status is displayed. It's interesting to notice why dims A1 + B1 show 2133MHz while dims A2 + B2 display 100MHz? This might be typical when configured in XMP1 mode.

Is everything functioning properly? Check that all parts are securely in place and there is no obstruction. Did you turn off XMP before noticing this issue?

The affected pair seems to require a replacement, replace them.
Look at the CPUz under memory section; the frequency should indicate 1600, which means double that value for DDR.

It seems I have two faulty stickers.
I tried several fixes:
- turned off xmp, saved, restarted – same problem
- re-seated all dims, restarted – still issue
- cleared CMOS, loaded defaults, saved, restarted – no improvement
- removed dims A1 and B1, restarted – no start-up
- placed either A2/B2 or A1/B1 dim into A2 – no start-up
- placed both A1/B1 and A2/B2 dims into A2/B2 – started successfully
- all dims plugged in work normally
Windows runs without errors, reports 32GB.
MemTest86 confirmed 4 dims and 32GB.
ASUS Windows AI Suite reported strange behavior for dims A2/B2.

Where do those four ram sticks originate? Were they purchased as a complete set of four together, or did you combine two separate kits of two sticks each? Mixing kits could affect performance.

Shouldn't each piece function independently in slot A2? I'm not receiving any post when inserting one piece there... and it's happening with the other as well.

I acquired the motherboard, CPU, and RAM from eBay three years ago. It's functioning properly until I upgraded from Windows 10 to Windows 11, after which I experienced frequent hard freezes around twice a week between 9 p.m. and 11 p.m. I completed tests like Prime95, Furmark, and Hard Disk Sentinel, and passed them all. MemTest86 also returned a full PASS. That's when I noticed the BIOS page displaying unusual status codes.

Ensure compatibility with single stick as well. Inspect the CPU socket for any bent or broken pins. Capture several high-resolution images of the CPU socket from various perspectives and share them here.

Let me rephrase this for clarity:
The results are positive when tested separately in slot A2, but negative when tested individually in slot A2.

Disable xmp by setting dram frequency to 2133mhz, adjust DDR voltage to 1.35V, and attempt again without using NO POST modules.
