I understand the name doesn’t work well. I couldn’t come up with a better title. My RAM sticks are damaged—bad contacts—so the computer won’t boot normally. I had four 3600MHz sticks running at 3200MHz with 1.5V. After replacing one and another to balance things, my system is showing three beeps and starts in safe mode via BIOS. It boots into Windows only if RAM stays under 2800MHz, but then games keep crashing. Why does it fail at higher speeds? Every few minutes the screen goes black and Discord stops working too.
