Hi everyone.

 

Setup is as followed

 

Ryzen 5 7600

Asus TUF B650 Plus Wifi

Corsair Vengance 2x16GB 5200 C40 DDR5

MSI 4060

Corsair RM650

 

So installed the RAM as described in the manual in slots A2 - B2 computer posts into bios but would randomly crash on bios screen when clicking any of the setting.

Tried to boot from USB to install windows and get BSOD.

 

At that point I removed 1 stick of RAM from slot B2 and booted into bios all worked bios fully usable, powered down and swapped the other stick of RAM into slot A2 booted fine into bios all working ok. At this point i changed the DOCP so it was running at 5200mhz restarted and booted into bios ok.

Installed second RAM stick into B2 and booted into bios all good no crashing, restarted and installed windows from USB stick.

 

Ran 3Dmark (had it on a USB) and all ran fine, install of windows ran fine.

 

Is that normal that the system don't run correctly without correct timings? or do you think i have something underlying wrong with the setup?

 

Cheers

It can happen.

 

I'd run memtest just to make sure everything is good.

Common build advice:

1) Buy the cheapest (well reviewed) motherboard that has the features you need. Paying more typically only gets you features you won’t use. 2) only get as much RAM as you need, getting more won’t (typically) make your PC faster. 3) While I recommend getting an NVMe drive, you don’t need to splurge for an expensive drive with DRam cache, DRamless drives are fine for gamers. 4) paying for looks is fine, just don’t break the bank. 5) Tower coolers are usually good enough, unless you go top tier Intel or plan on OCing. 6) OCing is a dead meme, you probably shouldn’t bother. 7) "Bottlenecks" rarely matter and "Future-proofing" is a myth. 8) AIOs don't noticeably improve performance past 240mm and don't improve at all past 360mm. 9) RTFM.
