possible broken RAM?
Your computer has been acting much slower lately. The Task Manager indicates you have 16GB of RAM, but only 8GB is being used. You've adjusted system settings and disabled maximum memory usage, updated your BIOS to the latest version, verified both RAM modules are recognized, and switched RAM slots, yet the issue persists. I've attached all relevant photos of your motherboard and Task Manager for reference. Your specs include an MSI B450 motherboard with DDR4 memory, a Cosair 3000 AMD Ryzen 7 1700 processor.
It's uncertain, but it seems like one of the sticks hit the ground and you were moving in a single channel.
