PC cannot start, motherboard reports RAM issue
Hey everyone, I'm just a new builder starting a build but it won't boot. Lights and CPU fan work, but GPU fan doesn't and the motherboard shows a DRam Error. I flashed my BIOS but the board doesn’t have a BIOS flash bottom. Any tips on troubleshooting? What could be wrong with these specs: B660 - TUF Gaming Plus Wifi D4 Intel i5-13600k, Gigabyte GeForce RTX 3060 Ti, Noctua NH-U12S, Crucial P2 500GB, Corsair 750W Kingston, Fury 8GB, 3600MHz?
The system requires the 13th generation processor to start up.
It's compatible with the same socket and will receive a BIOS update when the 13th generation is released. Most boards from the 12th generation were made before the 13th came out, so it makes sense they didn't include a 13th-gen BIOS support. If you don't have a 12th-gen processor, you'll need to install a 12th-gen CPU, flash the BIOS, and then add the 13th-gen CPU. That's the only option.
I attempted to switch them to dual channel mode as recommended in the manual, then tried the other two channels before using a single cable, but the issue persisted.
I attempted it before but didn’t get any changes. It seems 191x7 might be the right spot. I’ll visit a store tomorrow to check if they can fix it for me. Appreciate your support!
Starting from bios version 2004, it seems you need to visit a store to install a 12th generation CPU for an update, or consider returning the board.
