Hey everyone, welcome! I’m new to building and this setup caught my attention: specs include Asus TUF Z790, I9-12900k, Corsair Vengeance DDR5 5600, 64GB RAM, Asus Dual 4070 OC, Samsung 980 Pro, Seagate 8TB, MSI MagCore 360R, and Windows 11 Pro. Problems started right away—Windows wouldn’t boot properly, showing installation errors. After swapping the RAM sticks (not the slots), everything worked fine. My GPU fans didn’t spin up even at high temps, but after changing the motherboard slots they did. Now I’m stuck with a weird sleep/wake issue: PC powers on, then shows black screens, freezes, then restarts completely—lights flash, beeps, and it boots again. All drivers seem updated, and hybrid mode is probably off. I’m pretty tech-savvy but really confused about what’s going on. Any advice or insights from anyone experienced? Thanks!
