QVL and ryzen??? I have qvl listed memory not posting

[Zilla32]

Hi thanks for reading my post and any help given

 

So the issue is that i have x2 G. SKILL Ripjaws V 32GB (2x16GB) DDR4-3600 Memory (F4-3600C16D-32GVKC) kits but none work in a Asus x570 prime-p board and they are both on the QVL list? https://pangoly.com/en/review/asus-prime-x570-p/compatibility/ram (F4-3600C16D-32GVKC)

 

Things i have tried

1. using 1 stick, 2 sticks, 3 sticks, 4 sticks.

2. Bios flashes for the mobo

3. cleaning the gold fingers

4. used a multi meter to check for shorts

 

Effects

1. no image

2. has to power off by holding the power button, so it seems to be loading windows with no image

 

The funny thing is that its running a x4 4gb 2400mhz kit that's not listed on the QVL just fine lol. I have a new Asus x570 -F coming on Wednesday but i don't think anything will change and i will just get the same black no signal out, the board has no post code lights. (gj asus) But it seems to be loading into windows because of how i have to hard reset it, to power it off. 

 

Is this normal for X570? just upgraded from an old 5960x intel build so any help would be rewarded with large amounts of

Did you try resetting CMOS? I mean it should've reset cmos by updating bios, but worth a shot.

 

I had a fault recently on another of my desktop builds where the RAM was giving me CPU/RAM error codes on POST, reseated, tried different slots etc and nothing changed. Swapped the modules around with a different set that worked, swapped the first set back in, and they worked again with no probs now at all.

Thank for your help but i have tried that too

 

I don't think the memory is dead because if u tried single sticks then all 4 would need to be dead

 

Thanks for help

Could the issue be that the ram will work with the motherboard but not the cpu? https://www.amd.com/en/products/ryzen-compatible-memory I cant find the memory on the QVL list for the 3950x? 

 

Have i solved the issue?

I looked at your boards QVL and it looks like its there for Zen 2 but not Zen 3 kinda weird.. I didn't look at G.Skills QVL though. When I bought my G.Skill kits I made sure they were on my mobos QVL for 3000 and 5000 series, and then I checked G.Skills site and made sure my mobo was on their QVL before I purchased them just because I didn't want a frustration box.

You say its not on the list for 3rd gen but if you check my picture, it is listed or am i wrong?

@freeagent Thank you for your help  anything helps more than u might think. We do 3d printing of prosthetic limbs and the down time is killing me  

 

HAVE PEOPLE I CANT HELP

 

[freeagent]

No problem man. That is a sweet rig man, I really hope she comes to life for you soon!

 

Sorry I meant it wasn't on the list for Zen 3 which is Ryzen 5000 series, it looked like it was there for your 3000 series. 

 

Do you have an old video card you can use? I had to use a really old card to get my board to start a couple of times.. my fault for pushing the overclock too hard..

Hi freeagent, i just sent the memory back for a refund

 

What would be the fastest memory kit i can get for the 3950x on a x570 board? need 16gb dims @ 3600mhz or faster (i cant find anyone running a 3950x with high memory on youtube)

 

What would be the best x570 motherboard for ddr4 compatibility?

 

Sorry for the noob questions

So i just brought this kit F4-3600C16D-32GTZN that is listed under the QVL for the motherboard but not the QVL for the RYZEN 3950x, will this be an issue?

 

Why is this so hard

That's a really nice kit. Has B-Die modules, you should have very little issues.
