I've got a new CPU, but I'm missing one RAM stick.
Hey everyone. I just switched my CPU from a Ryzen 5 1600X to a R5 3600. The motherboard is a Gigabyte Aorus B450 i Pro Wi-Fi, and I have Corsair Vengeance RGB Pro 2x8GB RAM at 3200MHz. The issue is that after the upgrade, only one RAM stick appears in BIOS and Windows. CPU-Z and iCube both show both sticks, but when I install the new motherboard, it only recognizes one. When I got the new BIOS (version F50), everything worked perfectly with my 1600X. I’ve tried reseating the CPU multiple times, adjusting the cooler, replacing RAM sticks one by one, and even clearing the CMOS with a jumper—though that was done on the 3600 in the MB. It seems the problem might be with the BIOS settings or something else. I’m not sure if the RAM is faulty or if I messed up the installation order. The BIOS itself appears to be fine, and both my RAM and motherboard function correctly with the 1600X. Any advice would be appreciated! Thanks.
