Hello, I have an issue with my ram. I went on a trip for 3 days and came back home to my pc not booting up. (my PC was working perfectly fine before hand) I did some research and decided to swap around ram and removed a ram stick and now my pc is able to turn on. Was just wondering why my ram has just suddenly stopped working when i havent touched my pc for 3 days. NEED HELP ASAP PLZ

prebuild from who? is it a model type on it? 

 

ram could just go bad but most likely not.. you where gone for 3 days.. where do you live? was it any thunderstorms close to where the pc is located?

Okay I guess the SKU number works, Corsiar Vengance is a reputable brand. If you can't figure out the motherboard brand you can do so through software like HWiNFO (choose installer, local U.S.). Knowing the motherboard brand and model would help figure out if it's a common issue with the motherboard, if not then your RAM probably just went bust and you need to replace it.
