hello, just looking for some second opinions on an issue I've been choosing to ignore. I've had issues getting my ram to run stable at 3000 mhz in the past, it's stable now, and has been for a long time. i had to bump the voltage up to 1.395, not a crazy number. i have prime 95 tested it multiple times for hours to be sure that there isn't an issue, as i keep getting the 4 beep code at startup. when it has the beep code, it will run fine, but it does take a few extra seconds to post when this occurs. i have flashed the bios, as the notes mentioned it has improved ram stability, but that was months ago, and it still beeps. it isn't every startup, I'd say it does it 3-4 times a week. i know this error can be other things other than ram oc issues, but since it runs fine, i have ignored the beeps. the beeps are now starting to happen more often, so i am starting to pay attention again. my question's are, is this an issue i can continue ignoring? or is there something i should be investigating? and could my ram be on it's way out, even though it passes all stress tests? also worth noting, I'm replacing the cpu and mobo soon, so if ram has to be included, i wouldn't mine the excuse lol. thanks for any input. specs: 6600k h60 cooler rog strix gtx 1070 asrock z270 extreme4 corsair vengeance lpx 3000mhz evga bronze 80+ 500w 1tb 7200rpm 240gb ssd sata 970 evo plus 500gb m.2
Navigate to the specified thread and select the AMI Bios beep codes.
Interesting update! It’s helpful to note the details, though I’m focusing on possible motherboard concerns. Since I haven’t swapped RAM yet, testing it on another system earlier helped—no sounds detected.
It seems there might be a motherboard problem, but overall it appears to work and run smoothly most of the time. It could just be a random occurrence. Thanks for letting me know. I fixed the font coloring—I used the "night" theme, so the letters were white. That’s actually the daytime background color, right?
It seems the motherboard is adjusting its memory settings. This might happen due to slight voltage issues, aging memory, or corrosion over time. You could attempt removing the memory and gently cleaning the contacts with a dry brush to see if it improves performance. However, if you plan to upgrade soon, this effort may not be worthwhile.
It's been a while since I last cleaned it, so let's do it now. Thanks!
