Ram wont stay in the slot

Whenever I try to insert ram, it makes a sort of a fuzzy noise (i dont really know how to explain it) and it does not click. i can wobble it around and sometimes it falls out halfway to the point where I can see the pins (but it is still locked in place and wont go all the way out). Is this a ram or a motherboard problem? The motherboard is a gigabyte z170xp-sli and the ram is ballistix 16 gb ddr4. it only has 1 clip for the ram

Sounds like your Motherboard is damaged 

RMA - And see if the issue happens again 

Also I would check the Ram or any damage 

IntelCorei54670k,Maximus VI Formula,Swift tech H220, 16gigs Corsair Dominator platinums, Asus DCUII GTX 780,1x256 840 evo, 1x 2TB Segate barracuda, Corsair AX 860,

Untypical, consult your motherboards manual it should have a note somewhere showing you how to do it (if it's done diffrent than usual by any reason) 

 

Otherwise you have a shiny physicly damaged motherboard D:
