MSi B450F? Do you mean ASUS B450-F?

Red LED = CPU Error

Yellow LED = DRAM Error

Is the error tied to THAT one stick of RAM?

If you put in the second stick, and it comes up with an error, then it is VERY likely the memory stick is faulty.

Ah yeah I meant ASUS somehow switched it up, anyway it’s not tied to a particular stick it’s just when I add a second one
