Hello, I see you're dealing with a puzzling issue with your system. You have four 16GB RAM modules at 3600MHz, but when all four are connected, your PC fails to boot. Removing certain modules lets you use others without problems, but not when all four are active. It seems the configuration matters more than just the type of RAM. If you try pairing them in pairs, it works fine. Could you share more details about the exact setup or any error messages you're seeing? Thank you!

What processor do you have? The AMD Ryzen 5 3600 is often linked to memory channel problems. It seems both channels don't always function independently. Likely, this issue is more common with the Ryzen 5 3600 (X).

With xmp or DOCP activated? The setup refers to R1 through R4. Populate A2-B2 for two sticks or A1-B1 for four sticks to enable dual channel. Updated August 30, 2024 by leclod

Intel i9 9900k CPU details provided. Configuration notes shared: using A2/A1 or A1/B2 seems problematic. XMP not enabled. Boot issues arise with specific RAM combinations—A1+B2 fails, A2+B2 works. Removing RAM causes boot failure; adding RAM restores functionality. BIOS settings allow full 32GB, but speed adjustments cause boot failures. Current setup runs at 2666 MT/s regardless of configuration.
