Go to solution Solved by Lemtea,

Nope ram is ram the only thing that matters is if it is the right type e.g.ddr4. There is no such thing as ryzen or intel ram, the issues ryzen had ealy on around ram have been fixed over time. You should be able to run that ram at its full 3000mhz xmp profile, just make sure you have the latest bios first.

If you can run it at its XMP settings, absolutely nothing.

Is the CPU fan spinning? Are you using the stock cooler?

Is it the stock fan that comes with your CPU or is it some other fan you put on there or maybe from an aftermarket cooler?

I think so. Weird though, the fan should be PWM so if you plug it in the CPU fan header it should work.
