Windows 10: Failing Motherboard? Faulty Ram?

Hello So i had a question early about a my windows 10 being corrupt spent the last couple of hours fiddling with my pc and got to the stage where i realise 4 sticks of ram breaks my pc causing me bluescreens and infinite boot loops. Tried it with 1 stick 2 stick and 3 sticks and all works fineRam: 4x8 3200Mhz Corsair Vengeance LPXMotherboard: MSI B450M PRO-VDH PLUSIs this a early sign of motherboard failure or is they another solution to this

:)

 

Motherboard or RAM

Sounds like the board doesn't like to use an XMP with that RAM.

Running the RAM at the default frequency may be better than unreliable operation at its rated frequency.

You may be able to improve matters by manually setting the voltage and timings, especially if the motherboard is fussy when all 8 DIMM slots are filled.

Just curious: is the RAM on the QVL for the board, for 8 DIMMs? (Not being on the list doesn't suggest a problem, but listed RAM should have no trouble.)

Sorry that I can't offer more solid receommendations. I used to run a P9X79 Pro (with 4 DIMMs), but retired it a few years ago. (My hobby is assembling my own PCs, rather than doing useful work with them.)

That's what the auto setting will do since you're over the 1333 mark it jumps to the next step which isn't listed or officially supported I assume by that ram.

At this point though I would suggest dropping the multi one step or .5 so that we can get something stable and possibly take the heat issue out of the picture for now.

 

MemTest Fail is the ram faulty ?

Although MORE likely it is a ram error, one cannot be certain
please see this
MemTest86 - Troubleshooting Memory Errors
which explains that memtest - tests not only ram, but also the memory of the CPU etc

As yours only failed on test 6 it MAY not be ram, although as I said that is the mnore likely
Here is an example of test 6 failure
Test 6 errors on specific CPU. - PassMark Support Forums

Your problem is that as you know on the other thread of yours where the PSU was discussed
Full crash/Power loss on videocard

although not under load on Memtest - it MAY still be the PSU.
OR regrettably it could be the CPU which is the ram controller on your board
OR inded the board itself

The problem is that as you cannot carry out actual - opening case and trying possible aspects of the problem, that you are going to have to either find help from a knowledgeable friend etc ort engage professional help.

The FIRST thing to try is re running memtest on just one stick.
If you then get an error - run again on the other stick
If on one of these you do NOT get an error
You may presume it is the ram - although even then, that is NOT certain.

YOUR motherboard

Your ram slots are numbered 4,2,3 and 1 from the processor - as on page 4 of that manual
the ram sticks should be inserted

The ram sticks should be in 2 and 1
OR
4 and 3
as on page 10 of that manual

Therefore test one stick at a time using both of those slots
ON EACH alternative
That eliminates the possibility of it being faulty slot
Additionally when the case is opened it will allow the person to check for dust build up
NOTE
Memtest numbers the slots 0,1,2 and 3
It shows your sticks in slot 1 and 3
so you need to check using the details I have given you from your board and test one stick at a time
to see if you still have an error
and if necessary the two sticks in the two alternative slots
