Identifying issues Need assistance resolving the problem
I've been experiencing freezing and stuttering in games and while using the system. Restarting seems to temporarily resolve the problem. I also have trouble connecting the computer through my first RAM slot, which is confusing. It might be related to a motherboard or CPU/socket issue? Need assistance narrowing down the cause.
If the first RAM slot fails, it might be due to the slot itself, the CPU socket, or the processor. Consider reinserting the CPU to see if that resolves the problem. This isn't directly linked to the freezing issue, but it's worth attempting.
I removed my RAM from my laptop and connected it to a friend's machine, but it didn't post in the first slot either. Changing its placement didn't make a difference.
It seems your RAM connection might be faulty, which can cause stuttering in certain games. Try replacing the RAM first; if it doesn’t improve performance, consider replacing the motherboard. If you're willing to wait a few weeks, you could also test on another PC. Make sure your CPU is functioning properly before sharing it.
