GPU: GTX 770 Non-Overclocked

RAM: 2X Balistex 8GB DDR3

If you are seeing all your memory in odd channels and it was seated correctly before (matching colours) and you haven't modified any BIOS settings then you've probably damaged the RAM slot, but that is somewhat unlikely even for a novice PC user.

 

Restore your BIOS back to default, remove and reinsert your CMOS battery and move your memory back to it's original position, let me know how you go after that.
