HI! My system: CPU: i5-10400F motherboard: ASUS Rog Strix H470-i Graphics Card: GTX 1660 Super RAM: G.SKILL Trident Z 16GB (2x8GB) DDR4 3200MHz F4-3200C16D-16GTZR PSU: Fractal Design ION+ SFX-L 650W Gold No screen after boot, DRAM yellow light is on. Tried different RAMs, tried only one slot or the other or with both but other type of RAM. Although this type is supported according to the manufacturer. Previously had a 11th gen CPU do others said the problem is that the older MB does not recognise the 11th gen CPU. Now I have the same type of problem with the supported 10th gen, no screen, can not even enter to the BIOS, can't update BIOS. This type of MB does not have flashblack option, cant update without a screen. What can be the problem? Please help! Thanks, Boren

Hi, I finally found set of kits that are compatible with my GB Elite X570 in my country which is the HyperX Fury 3733mhz CL 19-23-23 I know they are loose timing but they are very cheap, like 50USD cheap per kit than others brands in my country. After some research I read that it runs Nanya A-Die, which I never heard of in my life, now I'm having second thouts of getting them? anyone tried them, I cant find any useful info online?! thanks,

First of all my Build information: Ryzen 9 3900x with stock cooler (Wraith Prism) MSI b450 Pro Carbon AC / ASUS ROG B550F Gaming WIFI 32gb Corsair Vengeance 3000mhz (4 x 8GB) MSI RTX 2080 Super Gaming X Trio 500 GB m.2 samsung evo 970 1TB patriot burst SSD Bequiet Pure Power 11 600W (modular) Hi, my build has been running for 2 Years without any hickups whatsoever. A couple of Days ago it randomly shut down without any warning while watching a video (I was not stressing the system whatsoever as you could imagine from the specs above). I tried to restart the PC but it would not boot. All the fans would spin really fast and the DRAM LED would be glowing (not flashing, if it can even do that) constantly until i shut down my computer again byy holding down the power button. I tried starting it with one stick of ram in slot 1 (the one nearest to the CPU) and it bootet just fine. So I tested all the Ram sticks individually in Slot 1. Every Ram stick was working fine. I then proceeded to test the other slots. Turns out with a single Ram stick in slot 3 or 4 the system would again show the DRAM error. 1 and 2 were working just fine (not with both sticks in them tho. Either one stick in 1 or one stick in 2). I flashed CMOS and updated the bios still nothing. I baught a new Mobo (the second one mentioned in the specs) and swapped it with the old one thinking that would be the end of my problems. The Problem persists. But now every channel works and i can get the PC working with 2 sticks of Ram in slot 3 and 4 (those were dead on the other mobo). So now i can use 2 sticks of Ram but still not 4. whenever I try to install a third or even fourth Ram stick in slot 1 or 2 i get the DRAM error. If I install only one stick of Ram in either of those slots, the PC is booting just fine. I found some Forum posts narrowing this issue down to 2 components the PSU that is somehow acting up when trying to use dual channel memory or the CPU. The thing is: every one with the CPU problem had bent pins from installing the CPU. Their errors occured right after build and NOT years later. How can I bent a pin while the CPU is sitting in its slot? That seems impossible. Also, while swapping the CPU to the other mobo I did not see any bent pins. It went in the other mobo like butter and everything is working (e.g. stress testing with high temperatures or long use for several hours). I ordered the exact same Power supply from Amazon hoping this will fix things. If that is not it, I will have to sent the CPU to AMD hoping they find something. My question now is: is there another solution I did not think of/find? My CPU cooler is not overtightened (it has this weird clamp system that comes witrh the stock cooler, no screws involved)

Hi, MB: MSI MAG X570 Tomahawk Wifi - Bios 7C84v181(Beta version) CPU: AMD Ryzen 5800X RAM: Crucial Ballistix 16GB*2 3600MHz CL16 (BL2K16G36C16U4B) #1 I realized those kits are 2 sticks of single rank. Do you think somehow performance match / overcome 2 sticks of dual rank? #2 I guess buying the same kit, would result into an overflowed IMC and would be counterproductive (additionnaly too much ram & hard for the wallet), what would you advice? #3 I am trying to perform a clean overclock to grasp performance from my build, any recommended guide to overclock step by step on an equivalent configuration? You can find my current O/C (4000MHz at 16-18-18-38): I am not familiar with all those timings & sub timings unfortunately. How can I improve starting from there? Should I try to improve main timing on a lower frequency, or fiddle the timings on that frequency? FYI: I have let MemTest (windows) run for 2 hours, no errors seems to pop so far My current AID64 score: Latency goes sometime down till 56ns on some benchmark. Thank you for your help and your guidance!

Soo, I was messing around in the bios and I noticed my dram frequency was pretty low. So I bumped it up to the memory frequency thinking that was the memory frequency menu. I clicked save and now my system won't post. My Memory frequency is 3600 mhz so I'm guessing dram is that times 2 so yeah I don't what to do now

Hi guys I have a problem with my pc. Sooo i saw a video which a guy download a file to update the bios with a usb stick but he has a bios flash button but i dont have it on my mobo, maybe i cant find it.

Hi Everyone, I'm having a big issue! I recently swapped out my PSU for a higher wattage and somewhere down the line I got a CPU Over Voltage error. I since went back to the old PSU and still have the same problem. CPU is at ~4v A local IT company told me my CPU will most likely need to be replaced, but I just noticed the DRAM is also at ~4v. Do I need to replace the DRAM as well? Is this an issue with the motherboard? I'm looking at replacing whatever parts I need to, but now I'm wondering if I need to start over with a new build... Specs: MOBO: Asus Prime Z370-A CPU: i7-8700K RAM: G.SKILL Ripjaws V (2x16gb) PSU Old: EVGA G2 650w PSU New (returning): EVGA Supernova G5 1000w GFX Card New (haven't tested yet): Gigabyte Aorus Master 3070ti

Help!! Pc won't boot after the boot drive partition was converted from mbr to gpt to enable tpm. After the conversion and reboot, the dbug led is jumping back and forth from dram to gpu to cpu but sometimes is only on dram, and the pc wont give any image. Tried to reset the cmos, but it didn't work. The mobo has two bios chips, but there is no way to switch between them.

Hi everyone, Long time LTT follower but new to the forums. I have the following config: Ryzen TR 3960X ROG Zenith II Extreme Alpha 128 GB DDR 4 4000 ASUS ROG STRIX RTX 3090 OC GAMING 24 G EVGA 1300W My issue is when the computer is running the ram works fine. I have tested it multiple times but when I cold boot the computer after a long night it does not boot. I have to let it stay on a couple of minutes and reboot it until bios goes in safe mode and then it boots normally. Any tips on how fixing this cold boot issue ? I can't seem to find a DRAM Training option in the bios... either that or i'm not looking for the proper name. I'm using DOCP but since i'm using PCIE 4.0 I down clock it at 3600 or 3533 to make sure I don't have any issues with it. If I run the ram at stock JEDEC speed 2400 I don't have any issues. Thanks, -
So pretty much what the title says. I got a new GPU, installed it, and suddenly my pc doesn't start. So I check around and see that the DRAM LED is on. I google the thing and the answer is that my RAM is not being read. Which is odd, given the fact that I had been using this PC for about 3 weeks with the iGPU of my i7. Anyways, I remove the GPU and my computer boots normally into windows with the iGPU. So I try again with the GPU and the same happens. DRAM. So I reseat the sticks and try again; nothing happens. Somehow, I just restart my computer and for some reason, it boots. Takes some time going from the DRAM light all the way to the BOOT light but no other light shows and I get into windows. I actually managed to install the drivers but just as I finished installing them, the computer freezes and reboots itself. Then, the MOBO splash screen says "Please wait". So I left it overnight and nothing happened. When I woke up it was in the same screen. So I forced shutdown and pressed the power button again. This time, instead of the DRAM light turning on, the VGA light shows. So I reboot. Now the BOOT light shows. I reboot. Sometimes I can get into BIOS when I try to load default settings but just as I click the option, it freezes and the BOOT light turns on (even though it wasn't on when I booted that time) Here's what I've tried: -Resetting BIOS -Resetting CMOS -Unplugging GPU -Booting with only 1 RAM stick -Swapping 6+2 cable -Rebuilt my computer -Contacted Gigabyte in case it was a problem with my MOBO (they haven't answered yet though) And here are my specs: CPU: i7-11700 MOBO: H470 AORUS PRO AX (Q-Flashed, of course to work with intel 11th Gen) RAM: CORSAIR VENGEANCE PRO 32GB 3200MHz (4x8) GPU: ZOTAC RTX 2060 PSU: EVGA 600BQ SSD: WD BLUE 1TB Please help. I really want to use this thing and I don't think Linus would be willing to come to my house and fix it. -
Anybody be able to help with this? Just finished my new build and enabled xmp in BIOS. Task menager reports 3200mhz as it should be, but hardware info and cpu-z show 1600mhz. For futher information, I have 4 sticks of corsair vengence rbg pro with (once again) xmp enabled.

Hi, I have 4x8GB Corsair Vengeance Pro RGB 3200mhz 16-18-18-36 with very loose timings scoring 74ns latency on AIDA 64. Spent multiple hours overclocking and tightening the timings until I reached 3466mhz 16-19-19-38 and tighter timings on secondary timings. My concern is the voltage 1.4v which I read is bad for C-die and temps which goes up to 65c (will get 60mm noctua fan for them), I read that c-die will not even boot at 1.4v but it does normally, are the numbers safe? can I tighten the timings even more? Thaiphoon says its a samsung b-die but after looking around the net they are C-Die (Ver 4.32) should I push to 3600mhz at higher voltage? is SoC voltage fine?

Hi guys, today I happily received my new PC. Specs: Case:MSI MAG VAMPIRIC 011C Ryzen Ed. PSU:Aerocool AERO WHITE 700 Watt (80+) Mainboard:MSI B550M PRO-VDH WIFI, AMD B550 Prozessor:AMD Ryzen 5 5600X 6x 4.6GHz RAM:16GB DDR4-RAM PC-3200 (2x 8GB) Graphics card:Nvidia GeForce RTX3070 8GB, beliebiger Hersteller M.2 / Optane:NVME M.2 SSD 1TB Kingston A2000 Festplatte Wireless LAN:Intel Wireless-AC 3168, Bluetooth 4.2 Soundcard:7.1 AUDIO BOOST + Soundblaster Cinema Processor-Cooler:Xilence M704 (für AMD) It also has win 10 pre installed. It is a prebuilt. The problem here is that when I turned it on everything goes well, leds RGB lights of the components and the fans are running. So far so good but one thing I've noticed was that a light was shining in white. It's the dram light on the Mainboard. When it boots up then the CPU just blinks one time and then switches to the dram. I plugged my monitor in and it has no signal. It's connected via HDMI. The next problem is that when I want to plug my mouse and keyboard in the don't seem to get power. Normally they glow cause of LEDs but nothing on this PC. I've tried every USB port on this PC bot not one would work. I really want try and get the problem myself because otherwise I have to send it back because on warranty. But that is time consuming but in the end when nothing should help then I have no other way. I looked these problems up so far and I switched the ram sticks but nothing worked. Maybe u guys can help me out. If you need pictures of the PC feel free to ask but for me it looks completely fine. -

Earlier this year Samsung introduced its D1z DRAM for mass production. Quote :"Samsung Electronics has developed its D1z 8GB DDR4, D1z 12GB LPDDR5, and 16GB LPDDR5 DRAM devices as well with higher performance. We found both of the latter two devices (the D1z 12GB and D1z 16GB LPDDR5 chips) in the Samsung Galaxy S21 5G series; S21 5G, S21+ 5G and S21 Ultra 5G just released in January 2021."[1] These devices are based -almost entirely- on EUV. EUV is known to have some problems, especially when it comes to yield and chip throughput ,and especially at Samsung foundries. However, Micron chose to avoid EUV for their new DRAM (for whatever reason, which very likely relates to EUV machines availability ). Micron announced its first 1-Alpha DRAM for mass production, which is marketed to offers: "a 40% improvement in bit density and a 15% drop in power consumption compared to 1Z" [2] Thoughts: This approach is very interesting, as it could lead to "EUV free" process flow that ultimately helps with the global IC shortage. Although the crucial and most important details about the 1a process are not published yet.

Hi Guys, I just build my new system. Specs: AMD Ryzen 9 5900X; MSI MPG B550 Gaming Carbon WIFI, G-Skill Trident Z RGB 32 GB 3600 (4x8GB), MSI GTX 1060 Gaming X 6G (from old system), NZXT Kraken X63, Samsung NVMe SSD 980 Pro 1TB, Corsair RM850, Bequiet Pure Base 500 DX. I have had the problem with my RAM XMP Profiles not working, so I set the Ram Frequenzy to 3200 Mhz and the system is working without any problems. However the DRAM LED on the Motherboard still is constantly on and i didnt see any warning or something while checking the bios. Is there anything for me to worry about and how can i fix it? Thank you very much, Tob1d

Hi! I recently built a system: CPU: i5-11600kf motherboard: ASUS Rog Strix H470-i Graphics Card: GTX 1660 Super RAM: G.SKILL Trident Z 16GB (2x8GB) DDR4 3200MHz F4-3200C16D-16GTZR PSU: Fractal Design ION+ SFX-L 650W Gold The problem is the black screen, and motherboard shows DRAM yellow light. I already tried switching the RAM sticks with other ones. I tried with one stick at a time, in both slots. I checked the recommended RAM kits for this motherboard and it seems like its not the problem. I checked if they are fully in the slot. I don't really know any other things that I may have to try. Could anyone suggest anything other than sending back the motherboard? Could there be any other solution? Looking forward to your ideas. Thanks, Boren

Before I say anything, I know this topic is very discussed, even on the ltt forum, but I really can't find any answers for my case. I am looking to upgrade my RAM from my 8gb to 16gb, but I can't decide if I should buy 2 more dimms of 4gb (50€) or 2 dimms of 8gb(105€). I'm new to building pc's and don't understand much about dual-channel or quad-channel, what I got from reading multiple forums posts is that I wouldn't get dual-channel with the 4 dims and quad-channel is only found on flagship CPUs (don't quote me on that, I'm just saying what I read) so I would lose considerable performance while gaming. Why am I worring about a 50€ difference? Well, that's almost a quarter of what I paid for the whole system and I'm already running short on cash. I am not considering upgrading in the future as 16gb is more than enough for the kind of system this is and I'd much rather build a new one. This are the important system specs to this discussion, but the full list is on my profile: CPU - Intel Core i5-4460 RAM - HyperX Fury Blue DDR3 1600MHz CL10 2x4GB MBD - ASUS Vanguard B85 I would buy identical dimms to the ones already installed. I read the motherboard manual but got no conclusions out of it, but here it is E8519_B85VA.pdf (asus.com)

Hi, So, I have Corsair Vengeance Pro RGB 3200mhz 4 x 8GB, supposedly samsung bdie, I tried everything to overclock, DRAM voltage, SoC Voltage, GDDB or whatever is called for infinity fabric, used DRAM calculator, everything timing and I was able to reach the attached timings XMP: 3200mhz 16-18-18-36 After OC: 3400mhz 16-19-18-28 my concern is the high latency, I have 1:1 ratio but still, late 60s is still high comparing to what I'm seeing by other users. any suggestion? should I upgrade and get 3600mhz CL 18?

I dropped my CPU, and now my dram light is on. Need Help!
Seamus X posted a topic in Troubleshooting
I delided my cpu 9700k and used liquid metal in replacement. I tried to repaste my cpu yesterday, and accidently dropped it. The lid was dropped open. I reapplied the liquid metal, and put the cpu back in, but my computer is acting weriedly. It turns on and off for a few cycles, and then start to turns on, but there is no video output. Then the dram light is on. But I am sure that the ram is fine, as I was using them yesterday. I now ordered a 9900k as replacement for cheap. But I am wondering is my motherboard having issues? Should I just replace the motherboard and cpu altogether? Is it possible that the dram light is on becasue my cpu's memory controller is not working, and the motherbaord is fine? -
Hi, As the title mentions, I have a Corsair ONE i160 and I want to upgrade the ram, however I am not sure what is compatible with what and if it is possible? I was thinking of getting VENGEANCE® LPX 64GB (2 X 32GB) DDR4 DRAM 2666MHZ C16 MEMORY KIT. If there is anyone that can help with this matter I would greatly appreciate it! CPU = Intel Core i9-9900K Motherboard = Z370 Mini-ITX And here is a link to the models website. -
Need help with itx build. Recently transferred my PC from a mid tower to itx build. Only thing that was changed from my previous build was my motherboard from an MSI B550 Tomahawk to ASUS B550i-strix and the case. I am having a very interesting issue. When enabling DOCP to get my Geil ram to run at 3600 mghz everything seems to be fine and the system runs ok for the rest of the night. Then the next day when I try to boot I get a black screen, pc lights up keyboard and mouse light up, however no signal to monitor. The DRAM error light on the mobo lights up as well. In order to fix the problem I clear the cmos. This problem has repeated itself many times and I have not been able to replicate it aside from trying to turn my pc on the next day. I tried turning off the pc unplugging the psu and turning it back on, it boots perfectly fine. Only when I leave it overnight does this problem come up. I tried lowering the RAM speed to 3200 mghz and the problem came up again. The only time it has not come up is when I run the ram at default speeds 2133 mghz. I have also tried updating the BIOS to the latest version and it did not fix the problem. I do not believe it is faulty ram since the ram worked fine in my previous build. This problem has been very difficult to figure out the solution to as I do not know how to replicate the problem. Any help is appreciated. Also not sure if this is related at all. But when we first assembled it and tried to get it to post, I plugged my ps4 controller into the bios flashback usb port and the system did not post and we had to clear the cmos. Doubt this is related at all but wanted to throw it in there. Not sure what is causing this problem. (Mobo, RAM, SSD, PSU, CASE?)
