RAM, Board, or Chip?

Alright so I've been having substantial problems for a long while now. Loads of 'Memory management' and 'attpt to write to read only memory' and driver blue screens. Painfully slow, and I mean multiple hour slow Premiere pro export times. Heaps of random crashing and freezing. Force restarts. The lot. 

 

Memtest and memcheck show NO errors. 

 

Tried 3 different kits of crucial, gskill and Corsair 2400mhz memory. 

 

And have run 4 installs of win10 and 1 of win8.1. 

 

I CANNOT figure out what the heck the problem is. 

 

My system is this:

 

R7 1700 @stock speeds

4x4 g skill ripjawz v @stock speeds

MSi B350M Mortar board 

FE GTX 1080 @stock speeds

 

I've tried every RAM config possible (swapping DIMMs and slots etc. )

Tried reaching installing windows 

 

Can someone please help. If you can fix this issue, I'll send you $10 PayPal. It's been going on for literal months.

Have you run any diagnostics on the drive?  You didn't say what you have for your main drive, an HDD or an SSD?  Have you tried booting your system with just the bare minimum?  Main drive, mouse, keyboard, one stick of ram and GPU.  Trying to narrow down the possibilities through process of elimination.  What about the PSU?  What is it?  Have you ever had any problems with the PSU?  Is everything plugged in correctly, double check.

 

You said multiple attempts at installing Windows.  How did you do that?  Did you use a Windows Media Creation tool?  The tool will allow you to delete all the partitions on the drive and restarting making everything a clean, fresh start.

Try swap the mobo. MSI's AMD mobo sucks, especially the cheaper ones

The issue is kinda the motherboard, but also ryzen hates 4 sticks of ram. Get two sticks of ram and then reinstall windows just to be sure, then if that doesnt work its 100% the motherboard, get a new board (asrock pro4 maybe) but stay with two sticks.

Insert ram related question here: https://linustechtips.com/main/topic/1197132-setting-ram-speed-xmp-docp-for-dummies/
