Ram not being recognized

[hammad1029]

Recently i decided to change my CPU's thermal paste. When i removed my CPU from the socket, one way or the other a part of my clothes got stuck in the pins of the CPU socket and man are those pins sharp. Anyways i managed to get all the strands off (i think) and looked for bent pins immediately. To my surprise, there were NONE. I finished applying TP and booted the system. What happened then was that the 8gb ram now appeared as only 2 in bios/windows/taskmanager and the only ram stick recognized by the bios was the stick in the last slot. What is troubling me the most is that CPUID shows all 8gigs of ram which, in theory, rules out any issue with the ram or the ram slots themselves. The computer works flawlessly tho. I've attached some pictures of the socket pins and cpu pins that I just took https://drive.google.com/folderview?id=17TKU

None of them seem bent to me. Help please ASAP.

run a stress test that utilizes more than 2GB of RAM, like something in Realbench. If it works, then I wouldn't really worry about it.

Pins look fine?
