RAM causing problems for over 1.5yr

[RealEirith]

Apologies if I didn't use proper tags, this is my first time using this forum. 

Specs: 
Mobo: Gigabyte B650 Eagle AX 
CPU: R7-7800X3D
RAM: Corsair Vengeance DDR5 16GBx2 @ 5200MT/s 40-40-40-77
GPU: Gigabyte Nvidia 4070Ti
BIOS Version: F34a

This is an NZXT prebuilt since I did not build another PC at the time. 
Problem: When using two or more sticks of RAM, my PC will bluescreen and enter recovery mode. The error that throws is kernel heap pile up. I forget the exact wording, but that is the gist of it. I can throw in two sticks and it will survive for a few days to about a week and a half max before bluescreening during use or sometimes it just won't boot. This started roughly 3mo after I bought the PC in March or so of 2024. When the issue first arose, it would not post and I didn't use it for about two weeks. During that time, I contacted NZXT customer support and they were not much help as I did their entire troubleshoot checklist and wanted me to send my PC back to them for them to troubleshoot and fix and I did not want to risk it getting damaged in shipping as then I would be the one at fault for it and this is an expensive build. The motherboard that was initially built with the PC did not have debug lights, so I went out and bought a new motherboard with debug lights to give me an idea of where to look, and the light for RAM was on. I removed one stick of RAM and it booted up just fine, no issues. I later on decided to replace the RAM thinking that maybe it was just a bad kit. I bought the Corsair Vengeance I'm using now(I used that in my previous build and I had zero problems so that's what I stuck with). PC took both sticks just fine, had no issues until maybe a month or so later, I got bluescreens with the error I mentioned earlier. I removed one stick and it has been working just fine, but some games I can really feel a performance hit(Star Citizen for example). During one of my sessions in Star Citizen, I mentioned this issue and someone recommended updating my BIOS. I went from the very first BIOS version to F34a. I put the second stick in and it worked well for a little bit(roughly two or so weeks). I removed the second stick and that's what I have been using pretty much all the time with my PC. Recently, I looked up my motherboard compatibility and I found that my RAM is not fully compatible with my motherboard and CPU. I went into the BIOS and tweaked the speeds down thinking that by tuning it down a bit should help it be more stable with two sticks in, and like before, it lasted about a week or so. At this point, I am pretty unsure what my next steps are between buying a set of fully compatible RAM(and those prices are WAY out of my budget lol) or maybe buying a new motherboard that states its fully compatible with my current CPU and RAM. If y'all have any sort of ideas of things I could try, I am all ears. Thank you for your time reading and any and all help is greatly appreciated.

Are you using A2 and B2 RAM slots?

You can make sure it's really not your RAM by running a memory test with memtest86+

https://memtest.org/

You will need a USB drive to flash to, make sure you don't have important things on it.

If you are on Windows, run the USB Installer and then boot from the USB drive.

 

Maybe you can start looking for other things once you've confirmed it definitely is or isn't your RAM.

Actually... you can't....

 

Had the infamous "vengeance" ram... issues for years... memtest etc always showed "no errors"...

 

Eventually swapped out the ram to proper ram (trident z) and the issues immediately and completely vanished....

 

 

What it is, your RAM isn't "faulty" hence memtest comes clean but it's not really compatible with your cpu, hence crashes bsods etc occur frequently....

 

Memtest etc does *not* simulate a windows environment and thus is almost entirely useless (it *will* find faulty ram though, however... )

Ok, did you ever swap out your RAM?

 

Which brand model (if so)?

 

If I was you I'd try to find out what's the equivalent to AM4 bdies for AM5 and simply buy that (gonna be pricey but it is what it is)

Warranty?

 

 

Alternatively: buy Crucial (I know I know...) 5600 RAM, without heatspreaders if you have to.... Afaik that should be the most compatible AM5 ram, just a hunch tho.

yes, that's what I meant. Make sure the RAM modules themselves aren't faulty first (they are probably not, but it's good to check.)

Then you can troubleshoot further.

This is the compatibility checking website for your motherboard. 

Check the exact model number on the RAM modules and see if they are officially supported.
