Did it run Dual Channel when doing as I suggested, using only two sticks, in slots A2 and B2? If it did not, before you RMA to only have the same problem, pull the processor and look for bent/missing pins. This is very common with AMD when acting as you describe . |

To add to Kevins excellent post. Note: DO NOT alter anything in the BIOS. Not setting/using XMP, no voltages, no speed,l nothing. This is for troubleshooting that I ask this. Place two consecutively S/N'd sticks in A2 and B2, clear the CMOS(not BIOS but CMOS), reboot and do the Reset to UEFI Defaults TWICE. It should start, don't let it enter the OS unless you know the BIOS defaults suit your need/purpose. Power down and place the other two consecutively S/N'd sticks in A1 and B1 and hopefully power up. Please reply back to Kevin and myself please. |

Hello TJefFreeze, I also run 4 sticks of DDR4 memory. I read through the thread so far and I didn't see a reference to 's/n(serial number) sequence'. I purchased a QAUD channel set. Therefore each memory stick has a serial number from SN#...xxxxx01, ...xxxxx02, ...xxxxx03, ...xxxxx04(just pretend it is this sequence). The memory stick that ends in '01'(or whatever your lowest range stick is, place that in Channel A, Slot 2. The memory stick that ends in '02', place that in Channel B, Slot 2. Then the final two in Channel A/Slot 1 and in Channel B/Slot 1, respectively('03 and 04' SN#'s). Attempt this and it may correct your situation. If you purchased 2 separate dual channel kits, find out the SN#'s and use the lowest ranged in the A2/B2 and the higher ranged in the A1/B1 channel/slots. Hope it helps, otherwise it is a separate issue that is causing your configuration dilemma. Edited by Kevin A - 07 Jun 2017 at 2:04pm |

Thanks. I am convinced it's a bios issue. All of my hardware is in perfect condition. I have been in contact with Asrock and they have given me a set of steps that they think will fix the issue. I am trying it today and will post the steps here if it works

Hey there, I think we are facing more or less the same problem, probably it won't help but thats the topic I opened a few weeks ago:
http://forum.asrock.com/forum_posts.asp%3FTID=5053&KW=&title=bios-no-detecting-dualchannel-memory%20 After some testing they told me that it was caused because CPU pins are bended but i checked and they are alright so the problem its due to malfunction or a bios issue.
