Ryzen Master possibly damaged my PC, not sure! Anyone have advice?
Specs: Ryzen 5 1600AF, 2x8GB Corsair DDR4, GTX 1060 3GB.
I thought overclocking RAM was a good idea using Ryzen Master. After cleaning the system, I noticed a black screen. I cleaned my PC and reset the CMOS multiple times with battery and jumper, but nothing changed. PS: I didn’t change voltage settings.
If you sold your motherboard and the RAM I used for overclocking, and now you’re getting new parts—what should I do? Will using the old CPU from my previous setup hurt the board? Thanks!
Bios and XMP configurations should be set for future RAM OC, same applies to the CPU. The GPU is just a hardware component; it's recommended to configure it through software.
Don't overclock the RAM beyond its specifications. The processor can help verify functionality.
LOL
That's really so true...you make it your business when you think it a good idea to overclock. Hard to blame Ryzenmaster for that.
And yes, if the CPU really is faulty it is possible for it to harm a new motherboard. If it has an internal short to ground that would possibly damage the VRM, for instance, although I can't imagine that likely to happen if just memory was overclocked.

Use BIOS for testing. I occasionally run bench tests with software, but optimal settings are stored in the BIOS.
