Thanks for the info! Guess it's time for me to try a BIOS update to see if that makes a difference to my boot time.

It?™s super fast, haven?™t counted but probably around 5s. I?™m surprised how fast it is.

Thanks for getting back to me, yeah it ended up being one of the memory sticks, had to replace the pair, but it?™s been quite stable since.

I put it together, everything went perfectly for about a week when I started getting blue screens and after investigating a bit it pointed to memory issues. Did a memory test and it?�s erroring out like crazy whatever the settings. So I tried to update the bios and it didn?�t work but I eventually managed to do it. I?�m at 3.10 the latest version. The pc booted once after that, went to windows, everything seemed fine, then I rebooted to set up everything in bios but I?�m not getting any image anymore. At all.

Hi,

after my first message I've had no big issues, but that's because I haven't fully powered down the system since. The computer goes to sleep/hibernate/whatever mode, and seems to be waking up from it ok'ish: Sometimes it wakes up just by pressing a keyboard/mouse button, and sometimes I'll need to wake it with the power button, but either way it wakes up.

I've had no bluescreens myself, at least not yet. Seems I've gotten a bit more lucky than you with the memory modules I guess? I do have the 3.09 BIOS still installed so that could theoretically explain the difference, though you'd think that a newer version would work better... I'd be interested to know if you end up replacing the motherboard or mem sticks, and if that'll sort things out for you.

Do you have the same RAM modules as I do?

Thinking at least some of the issues might be due to incompatibility, as my RAM kit seems not to be listed in the memory QVL table: https://pg.asrock.com/MB/AMD/B650E%20PG%20Riptide%20WiFi/index.asp#MemoryRAP
