So at the moment my computer has 16GB of generic RAM in it, but the issue is any other RAM at all causes the following issues, freezes during startup, almost starting and seeing the desktop and loading screen simultaneously but being frozen, starting but not recognizing the keyboard or mouse or any USB ports, also when I try to install Windows on another SSD it freezes halfway through installing with the other RAM installed, but with the generic it works perfectly, I tried G.Skill, Corsair and T-Force, tried all of them at 2133Mhz, 2400Mhz, 3200Mhz, XMP off and on, 1 stick, 2 sticks, 4 sticks, all different voltages, resetting BIOS, even resetting the BIOS and installing them at the 2400Mhz they default to none of those three sets work even then, all leads to the same issues, with the original generic (mismatched) 16GB it seems to work normally, but with any other RAM at all it causes all those issues, also with the generic RAM gets to the BIOS relatively quickly, but the any other RAM it takes longer to get to the screen with the motherboard logo, the keyboard and mouse take longer to come on too with other RAM,
