Channel B stopped working

Specs-

Ryzen 7 3700x

16 GB  - 8x2

X570 gigabyte aorous pro wifi

 

Issue-

I had the ram installed in 2a and 2b slots and suddenly the stick in 2b stopped showing from yesterday.

 

I moved it from 2b to 1a and i see 16 gb now but its single channel..

 

Things i tried-

Reseating the ram.

Reseating the cpu.

 

Then i changes the cpu to a ryzen 3 apu and put the ram back in 2a and 2b, both showed up just fine.. at this point i was ready to accept that for some reason one of the memory channels in my 3700x is shot..

Just for kicks i installed the 3700x into a asrock b450 pro (this is the pc i took the r3 apu from) with 16 gb in 2a and 2b and both show up.

 

I am completely lost as to whats happening here installing 3700x back into x570 still does not show anything on channel b.

 

Any ideas/comments?

Yes they are in the correct orientation, i have had the system running since September last year, the issue started recently.

I'm sorry dude. I totally didn't read your original post thoroughly.

Time to RMA the board (X570) Your diagnostic was spot on. Cpu works in another board, Cpu is fine.
