Pc won't boot. Need advice.

[Faris14]

So when I want to boot, I get no output, I connected the motherboard speaker. Then I get if I have my ram in dual channel mode continous long beeps, but when I only put 1 ram stick in I get 5 short beeps which is rze error code for cpu. I checked the socket there are no bent pins or anything tried reseding ram multiple times and the cpu as well. I tried with both sticks and if I only put 1 ram stick in I get cpu error code but when I put both in its memory error code. What could it be? Should I just returny my motherboard tomorrow? Gigabyte b460m ds3h v2(h470 socket), crucial balistix 16 gb (8gb ×2) ddr4 3000 Mhz, intel i3-10100f.

Have you tried to clear CMOS or use another RAM kit to rule out the RAM kit is not defective? Try different RAM and if it still persists, the motherboard can be defective. Also, be sure the RAM is fully seated where you hear two audible clicks when pushing down on the RAM sticks.

Then I'd suspect the motherboard is defective.

I'd return the motherboard and buy another one or get a different model. Don't bother with RMA if it's still within the retailer's return window. Just tell them that the motherboard is not working.

I bought it like 4 days ago so definetly returning it. By the way looks like slots 1 2 3 are dead and only slot 4 works. It just started working randomly  five minutes ago

That's very strange for the motherboard to working only with 3 slots. Definitely return it as you don't know what will happen in the future.

Slots number :1,2,3 do not work at all only slot 4 works, and the ethernet is broken as well. Honestly no clue how so much can be wrong with a new motherboard and I wore esd protection. I will just go return it tomorrow and request a refund or to give me another board. Thanks for the help.

Edit: forgot t mention that the 3rd slot does work but only if its the only populated slot and it takes around 5 to 7 minutes for it to start working.
