I just installed a new build and tried to start it for the first time. It didn’t boot properly, though all the GPU lights, fans, and motherboard indicators were active. Initially, I suspected a cable or graphics card issue, but after some troubleshooting, I found the problem was with the RAM sticks. After swapping them in my personal build, everything worked fine. In my personal setup, both 8 GB and 16 GB DDR4 Vengeance cards paired with 16 GB HyperX cards booted successfully. However, when using two 8 GB cards together, it didn’t work at all. My new build includes a Ryzen 5 2600X, RTX 2060, motherboard, SSD, and case. I’m unsure what to do next—any advice would be appreciated!
