Hello,
My PC setup has been running for about three years now:
570 plus wifi
2080
850w Corsair PSU
4x 8 Corsair vengeance 3000mhz ram
5700x
I haven't encountered any problems yet, but recently the system crashed during mid-game and I'm now seeing no post, just one long beep followed by two short sounds (memory issue). The DRAM light is also on. I've tried re-seating the RAM in different setups—either one stick or two—but nothing resolved it.
I've also reset the cmod, but the same beeps and memory light appear without a post.
I'm not sure what to do next.
When adjusting your RAM setups, ensure consistency in slot colors—there are pairs of grey and black (A1/A2 and B1/B2). If you're confident about this and have tested each RAM stick individually in every slot, confirming proper seating each time, it might indicate a motherboard issue. You could also attempt booting without the GPU and using the motherboard I/O for display; this approach has helped me access BIOS during previous problems with RAM.
