you can try reseating the sticks and swapping them for different slots. That could be it. But also try below

 

- lowering the clock speed on the ram sticks to say 2400 mhz and see if that's the problem

- if you have other ram, try using that (make sure it's ddr4

- try using just 1 stick of ram (try each dimm) to see which one is the culpret

 

It is very (i mean very very) rare that ram fails especially from a good brand like corsair so it could just be your motherboard.

Try doing a memok?

you could also use windows memory diagnostic

windows memory diagnostic found no errors.. swapped my stick with one of the other 3 and the slot A1 still says no ram detected so maybe the stick is good.. should i do a clear cmos ?

Wait after reseating the stick and doing a clear cmos now it says that B1 has no stick..

you can just put the speeds back to stock settings to see if they still do it.

btw remember to quote or tag people (not both)
