Ryzen 7 5700X starts working with just 8GB of memory on the Asus Prime B450-PLus.
Hello I posted a topic a few days ago and in it i sayed my PC wont boot after putting in a Ryzen 7 5700x. (Motherboard is a Asus Prime B450-PLUS) good news now it boots Bad new with only 8GB of Ram at 2666mhz (of 32 running at 3200mhz) Is there something i can do to make it boot? Specs : power suply : Corsair 650w 80+ bronze (previouse) CPU : Ryzen 5 3600 GPU : Msi RTX 3060 Motherboard : Asus Prime B450-Plus Ram : 32gb (4x8gb)
I’d verify the board maker’s compatibility chart to confirm this RAM works with the 5700X. It could fit your older processor, though not the 5700X itself. A BIOS upgrade might also be necessary. Personally, I wouldn’t install a 5000-series chip on a B450, but that’s just my opinion.
bios is currently updated, but I attempted to use a different RAM setup that worked before, though it didn’t. Now I’m considering purchasing a new motherboard since I can’t fix anything myself.
Occasionally reverting the BIOS can resolve issues. Recently, MSI made a mistake by taking Zen 2 support off a beta BIOS that was released with new boards and available online. Someone discovered the error and found a fix. You can find more info on Greg Salazar's YouTube channel. A board with Zen 2 failed to boot due to this change, but rolling back the BIOS resolved the problem.
Check the bios for "loading optimized defaults" and verify compatibility with all four sticks running at stock speeds.
The issue arises because placing the four sticks caused a *bip* sound from the motherboard speaker, triggering an automatic restart whenever more than one stick was connected.
