Hi there , my pc has just had an accident namely it fell onto my bed and then it got punched 2 times to the sidepanel by my younger brother , the pc specs are the following

Ryzen 5 2600X

GTX 1070ti

asus x470 prime pro

500 gb samsung 970 evo 

16gb 3200 mhz ram (after the accident ram went to 2400 mhz but after resetting it to 3200 its fine  and stays at 3200)

windows 10 64 bit

Everything appears to be working correctly  , the system does let me into the BIOS UEFI , does boot , all thedata is present , the gpu is correctly identified by the NVidia control panel , in the bios the 2600X is identified correctly same for the ram (except for it going to 2400 mhz but after resetting the profile its at 3200) and it appears to be fine . Is there any way I can further test my pc for hardware failures?Were 2 punches to the metal sidepanel likely to crack my mobo and cause it to fail/give wrong ram speeds?

Bruh, I would make your brother pay for a whole new one even though it should be fine. Most mobos nowadays are pretty sturdy, but if he punched it in the right place then it could have possibly bent or cracked something, such as with your ram. For further testing, not so sure, but I would open it up and check inside.

If I posted the pictures of the internals and the bios here would it be possible to ask for a "diagnosis"?

Yep will do which pages of the bios should I post?

Well, as you said in your first post, everything is in order, the only thing I feel that should be checked is the physical ram parts because as you said, it changed to 2400 mhz until you reset it

I mean, unless you can see any cracks (which I cannot), then I'd say your fine. If anything does end up to happen, just make yo brother pay for it smh lmao
