   Bios version is P1.60. Increasing RAM voltage to 1.35V from 1.20V solved the issue. 

Thank you.

	What version of the BIOS do you have? Try increasing the voltage to the RAM (don't go over 1.35v). OR Ask gskill support. That motherboard is on their QVL list.

	CPU: Intel i5 10400F CPU Cooler: Stock RAM: 16GB DDR4 (GSkill F42666C19S-8GIS X 2) Motherboard: Asrock B460M-HDV GPU: Asus GTX 1660 Ti Storage: 120GB HP SSD+ 1TB Seagate HDD I bought new components about a month ago. In the beginig the PC ran without any problem. But recently, I started getting 'No input signal' issue after powering up the PC. After basic troubleshooting and resetting CMOS, the issue went away, but occurred quite frequently after that. After some more troubleshooting, it became clear that 'No input signal' issue on starup occurred only when two ram sticks were equipped in the slots. I have tested ram sticks individually in both the ram slots. Both slots are working fine with either of the ram sticks. Windows boot with either of the ram sticks equipped in any one the ram slots. Its just the dual channel ram config that is giving me hard time when using these GSkill sticks. I tried using a pair of Corsair 8GB 3200MHz sticks, using which the pc booted absolutely fine.
