Hello, I'm setting up a PC using a B660M-A Wi-Fi card from MSI. When trying to install the CMK32GX4M2D3000C16 RAM, it only works with one of the two sticks. Probably it wasn't supported at all... Should I replace my RAM? My system has an Intel Core i5 12400F GTX 1660.

It hinges on how you define "supported." Usually, if the RAM matches the board's requirements—like DDR4 for a compatible system—it should work well, though performance might not match the rated speeds.

Sure, it sounds like once you inserted the second stick, the system stopped starting, regardless of the settings you tried.

The RAM is operating at a consistent speed, but it might not match the expected two-stick configuration. It's a good idea to verify both sticks separately to ensure the system boots properly with each individually.

Hey, the setup is at 3000MHz and both sticks are functional. I’d consider tweaking BIOS settings, though it looks like MSI blocked me from doing so—boot shows a delay of about half a second before Windows loads.

If you can access BIOS, modify the RAM speed to 2933 rather than 3000. Consider checking whether it's actually operating at 3000. Also, verify if XMP is turned on.

The feature was set to active by default; I'll attempt to turn it off to check its functionality.

Try resetting the CMOS by removing the battery from the motherboard. Check for a clear CMOS jumper—usually two pins that can be shorted. Always disconnect the computer beforehand. If no jumper exists, simply hold the power button down while the battery is removed and the device is unplugged.

Unfortunately, that didn't work either...
