I need help with my new PC!!

[Xx_DonutEater_xX]

So I have built a brand new system today and I have noticed a very weird thing. It can not boot with 2 sticks of ram (gskill aegis ddr4-3000) but It boots with only 1 stick. Please help me. I can not enable xmp. I tried using them seperately and they work Just fine alone. But When I connect both of them the PC won't even boot. I tryed looking in the cpu socket to see if therw are any bent pins. I found 2. But them I fixed them. Just like I saw in one of Linus' video. I don't know what to do.

Are they plugged in properly and in the correct sockets, might be worth uploading a picture.

first, what do you mean by no boot? no windows or cannot get into bios?

if you cannot get into bios with 2x, try put both in the mobo (even though it will not work) and let it boot cycle a few times. (sometimes it can train the ram and work after about 5 cycles). if it still wint work, try memory in all slots. if you have 4 slots, try all 9+ combinations.

Yes they are seeded properly. And I tried flashing the bios. But nothing worked.

By not booting I mean it is turning on, but motherboard is showing white LEDs I will upload a video of the motherboard LEDs when I will be back home. If you want I can answer your questions about my system (components, etc.)

I have found the problem I think. The PC has the same exact problem When I insert 1 ram stick in the 4th dimm slot. I don't know, does this mean my mobo's 4th dimm slot is broken?

Untighten you cpu cooler this legit stopped my pc from booting in dual channel

[Xx_DonutEater_xX]

Thank you! I will try that as fast as possible.

[Xx_DonutEater_xX]

Wow! I don't have words. I can not explain how happy I am. Thank you! From now on I will know not to overtighten the cooler. Thank you, Thank you, Thank you!!!!!

Lol, I would have never thought of that as being a possible issue to this problem. I'm glad it didnt happen to me. I think I would have drove myself nuts trying to figure that one out!

I tried sooo many things. I was scared that my mobo was broken. I was frustrated but CustomEnchants, this very nice guy/girl (I’m not assuming gender) had the very same problem in the past. I am so glad I am able to ask this great community for help.
