Hey everyone, I'm looking for some guidance on what's happening with my system. After upgrading my old 13-year-old PC, I installed a new setup including an Asus Strix B550-F Gaming, AMD 5600X, Crucial vengeance Pro 3600MHz, and an 8GB x4 EVGA 750W PSU. Despite resetting everything—removing and reinserting RAM, updating BIOS, drivers, and the OS—I still face random BSOD errors. I've tried swapping RAM sticks and replacing the motherboard, but nothing seems to fix the issue. Any suggestions?

I determined the storage size by checking how the components were labeled. I looked for a version number on the stickers; if it varied among the four sticks, it suggests the issue lies with the memory chips themselves.

RONOTHAN, these are two separate sets of RAM modules. I’ll check them later once my partner is done with the PC and I can take a look. Saving a bit of money might have been a mistake, though.

The four sticks all meet the 8.31 price threshold. Here are their batch codes: 221307405470016, 221307405470017, 221307405470231, 221307405470232. Any other suggestions?

These are Nanya chips whose details I’m not familiar with. They could be a type of chip that doesn’t like mixing kits such as Samsung C die (v4.32) or they might simply ignore them like many others. It might be wise to experiment with the termination settings on the board. ASUS AM4 boards tend to be less robust for memory support, and adjusting the ProcODT configurations could improve performance. Updating the BIOS version may also make a difference, as AMD boards can behave better or worse depending on the revision.

They are among the four DDR4 producers (Micron, Samsung, Hynix, Nanya), but they are notably rare in consumer memory options.

I experimented with the ProcODT configuration and tried various BIOS options to see if they would resolve the issue. It didn’t work, but I appreciate the guidance. I plan to move forward with a 32G (16Gx2) replacement soon and list these on the market. The current system remains superior compared to what I upgraded to, and after spending a lot of time building and upgrading, staying out of the loop has its downsides.
