I possess these parts: CPU core i3-9100f, memory Fury HyperX 8GB (currently four pairs), GeForce GTX 1650, and PSU XFX XTR2 850W. The board functioned properly with all four slots until recently. After a rebuild, it only worked with one slot now. Despite cleaning the slots and testing all memory sticks, the issue persists. I’ve also used the MemoryOK button without resolving the problem. What might be causing this, and what steps should I take?

It might have dust inside the CPU or socket. Use compressed air to remove it and then reattach the CPU. For a more thorough cleaning, 99% isopropyl alcohol can help depending on how dirty the CPU is.

Check the old setup when the slots work properly. Also consider using a different RAM and disable XMP if it's active.

I reassemble using certain parts, modifying just the areas where they were assembled. I tested multiple RAM modules (four pairs available). It doesn’t work to turn features on or off in the BIOS; the motherboard only shows a DRAM error and halts the startup.

Check another RAM, look for a refurbished option or try to negotiate for a RAM swap during a PC used components store.

It seems the issue isn't likely due to memory problems unless all the dimmer switches are broken. The problem might be related to a dirty CPU or socket.

Are you sure there’s a way to safely remove them without causing harm? Even if you think you’re careful, it’s good to double-check your approach.

Use compressed air for the socket and CPU. For stubborn grime, start with 99% isopropyl alcohol and a dust-free wipe before cleaning with air. A paper towel works but may trap more particles.

It seems your issue involves the motherboard getting damaged due to a short circuit. You might have accidentally fried it, but it’s possible to remove the board from the case safely.

The majority of the tests were constructed from a case, with the motherboard box serving as the foundation. Once it was secured in place, all necessary supports for the board were present.
