Having some RAM issues.

SPECS

Motherboard: B350 PC Mate

GPU: GTX 980ti Windforce 6gb

CPU: AMD Ryzen™ 5 2600

RAM: G.Skill Ripjaws V DDR4 2400 8GB (3 of these. 2 Silver and 1 Red.)

So I recently bought some new ram to stick in with my old lonely red stick. Except windows kept giving me memory errors when I put the 2 silver sticks into the main channels on the red stick into either of the secondary channels. When I finally got windows to start up it was when I put the red stick in the only main channel and the two silvers in the secondaries and even then my computer would crash after a few minutes of it being started up. If you can give me further insight into my problem it'd be appreciated. Any questions I'd be happy to answer.

refer to the manual for what channels should be populated first.

also never run Ram in Singlechannel, so i am afraid you will have to run it with only 2 sticks for the time being. (mostly because singlechannel is just bad)
