I found a DDR4 16GB kit for the Gigabyte B550 Aorus Elite AX V2. It was a bit of a trial and error process—swapping components like the CPU, GPU, and even the motherboard didn’t improve things much. Since it was originally an Alienware model, the older RAM caused issues after upgrading the case, MB, or PSU. In the end, I kept the CPU and GPU but didn’t test other kits. The 5800X model didn’t work with any alternatives I tried.

Sure, just pick a 2x8GB 3600CL18 or a 16GB kit from G.Skill and have fun.

I reached that point by considering alternative options. Many affordable kits are compatible with the board, even if they aren<|pad|>.

I've been rearranging the sticks left to right, mixing in some worn-out ones and maybe putting them in the wrong slots. It's much better to spend the $50 and keep my mind clear.
