Hey there! I'm facing a major issue with my PC again. It won't start up properly, just a single beep during boot. The internet says it's due to a DRAM refresh failure. Since the mainboard already had a replacement after a controller problem caused it to ignore SSDs and fail to boot, could something else be the culprit? I've noticed two mainboard failures in under a year, which seems unusual. I also have a second Ryzen machine to help verify the parts. Thanks ahead!

Use one stick at a time. Consider switching kits if needed. Reset the CMOS.

I've completed everything already:/ It didn't alter anything.

Have you used another stick? Check the CPU. Based on what I observe, a single beep indicates normal startup. Confirm if it’s truly just one beep.

So you were right, it does Boot normally. One of the Displayports on the gpu is broken. I switched the cable between the four ports and I got a signal, put it back in the first port and now I got a flickering screen (but only on that one port). Thanks for the help
