Hey everyone, I'm dealing with something really odd I've encountered. A platform upgrade happened this week and I upgraded my system to a 5600x, 32GB RAM setup on my B550 Tomahawk (A30 BIOS). Despite that, I keep facing issues where I can't successfully POST. The Ez Debug LED indicates memory as the problem. I've tried two different memory modules—Oly Warhawk (model ND4U1632161DCWDX) and G Skill Trident Z (model F43200C16D-32GTZR)—but clearing CMOS or changing RAM slots hasn't fixed it. Sometimes it works, sometimes it doesn't. I managed to boot after installing the Trident Z, but it's still inconsistent. Memory only shows up at 2667 instead of the expected 3200. It can handle a P95 Large FFT for a few hours, but I'm stuck and need advice from you all. Thanks a lot!

This appears to be an issue with compatibility. Request a replacement for the RAM if it doesn’t fit. If that fails, request a replacement for the CPU due to faulty memory controller.
