Components: ASRock 650E Riptide + AMD Ryzen 9 7950X3D + Corsair DDR5 DRAM

The components were all working perfectly fine together for about 3 weeks. Then all of a sudden while the computer was running perfectly fine it abruptly shut off. I attempted to turn it back on, power flashed for 1 about 1 second, fans spun for 1 second then abruptly back off. Tried a couple more times and I keeping getting a failed POST test with DRAM and CPU POST status lights red for the duration of the 1 second the mobo stays powered. I attempted doing the DRAM switch game. 2 sticks in A2 + B2, 1 stick in B2, switch to other single stick in B2. No luck.

Find it hard to believe both of my DRAM sticks both went bad at the same exact time? Ruled out PSU as well. I just plugged the PSU into my old rig and everything is working just fine.

CPU, Motherboard, RMA? Or am I overlooking something?

Greatly appreciate any help.

Forgot to mention these were all brand new components purchased at the same time about 3-4 weeks ago.
