It worked smoothly the previous night using the R5-2600, then I went to sleep in anticipation of playing games after installing the 5600X. I was very cautious during that process.
Ryzen and related boards have some quirks with RAM. These sticks might have worked for the 2600, but the BIOS update for the 5600X—or possibly the board itself—could be causing issues. The user suggests verifying the board manufacturer's QVL for compatibility, especially if these RAMs aren't listed for 5xxx CPUs. They shared their own experience with a 5900X build that struggled for months due to similar problems.
Ensure the RAM fits into the correct slots on your motherboard. Verify it appears in the QVL list for your specific board to ensure optimal support and compatibility. You can usually find this information on the motherboard's official support page.
