Switching from HyperX to Corsair RAM offers better performance options.
I recently installed the new Corsair RAM and my PC won’t boot at all. The configuration includes: MB - Gigabyte B550 Aorus Elite AX V2 CPU, Ryzen 5 5600X, GPU - NVIDIA RTX 3060, 12GB RAM, 2x 8GB HyperX Predator DDR4 at 3200MHz, plus two 16GB Corsair Vengeance Pro RGB DDR4 sticks at 3200MHz. I tried different approaches: fitting RAM in all slots, using just one stick, changing the dual-channel setup, resetting the CMOS battery, and even adding Corsair iCUE as a backup. Still, no display appears when the PC starts up. Also, the system ran without any hardware changes except Windows 10.
I don’t have a dedicated setup for testing RAM, and I’m hesitant about changing my BIOS since past updates caused major issues. The Gigabyte BIOS tool seems to be trustworthy based on what I’ve seen.
Automatically remove all utility programs from your PC and avoid keeping them installed. Update your BIOS directly through the motherboard's support site, download the appropriate version, save it to a USB drive, and install it. If you're unsure, let someone assist you, but ensure you have the right file and keep your system safe from interference.
