cpu: threadripper 1950x
motherboard: taichi x399
ram: x8 corsair vengeace 4gb (all ram sticks are the same)
I have a ram stick that disables itself and the neighboring slot. Wherever I put that ram stick, it has the same effect on the neighboring slot. When I don't plug it in, the neighboring slot works. I've also tried swapping the two sticks but it doesn't make a difference.
What I don't understand is that if the stick's dead, why would it disable the neighboring slot instead of the slot it's linked to?
If the bad stick is in D2, shouldn't it disable C2 instead of D1?
Ram configuration:
D2 D1 C2 C1 A1 A2 B1 B2
Exhibit A (lower case is the defective's ram location):
d2 D1 C2 C1 A1 A2 B1 B2
Result: D2 and D1 not recognized.
Exhibit B (lower case is the defective's ram location):
D2 D1 C2 c1 A1 A2 B1 B2
Result: C2 and C1 not recognized.
Exhibit c (lower case is the defective's ram location):
D2 D1 C2 C1 A1 A2 B1 b2
Result: B1 and B2 not recognized.
