I've experienced some issues with my RAM recently. The situation is outlined here: After relocating a fan cable, my connections shifted somewhat. Immediately afterward, Windows (version 11) started slower and lagged more. Checking Task Manager showed only one DIMM detected, totaling just 8GB of RAM, suggesting the system was running low on memory. After rebooting via UEFI, Windows displayed two DIMMs, indicating the motherboard recognized both. This behavior raises questions about whether it points to a hardware problem or if my cable adjustments caused instability. I also observed that ASUS FanXpert detected only one chassis fan after moving the fan to another header, even though the UEFI logged both fans and all fans were active. This discrepancy is worth noting but unclear in its impact. PC specifications are available here: https://pcpartpicker.com/b/Wg9NnQ

EXPO is not always guaranteed. You could try memtest86+ just in case. And if the RAM modules are detected fine now, I don't think that there is any problem.

It could suggest an issue if the RAM isn't being recognized again.

Verify the RAM placement first; if correct, run MemTest86+ for testing.
