My RAM is running in Single Channel and I don't know what to do.

Here's my build:

" rel="nofollow - Are your ram modules in the correct slots? They should be in DIMM_A2 and DIMM_B2. Not side-by-side.

and then double check

and make sure both sticks are pushed in properly

these new am4 ram slots require a LOT more force to seat the ram properly

" rel="nofollow - JulienBrown, please post your specifications in your signature as I have, including OS and BIOS versions.  We have seen several system problems configured by pcpartpicker with a weak power supply.  I do not think that is your problem right now, just an early warning.  Does your board have an 8-pin and a 4-pin power connection to your CPU?  Does your PS supply these?  My BIOS allows screenshots and I assume yours does too.  Plug in a FAT formatted USB stick and hit F12 on the page you want to post.  I can make little sense on your BIOS picture.  I suspect, as datonyb, that one memory stick is not seated or defective.  Please test each stick, one at a time.  You may need also to test each memory slot.  My original board had two bad slots and required RMA.  Please open your BIOS and hit F9 (Load UEFI Defaults).  Enjoy, John.

same advice

try using slots a1 and b1
and make sure the ram is actually fully seated

it is usually the fact the ram ISNT fully inserted correctly

A1 + b1 boot ok (dual channel) 
Stick1 - a2 boot ok 
Stick2 - a2 boot ok 
Stick1 - b2 no boot
Stick2 - b2 no boot 

What can I do?

your slot b2 is defective

either
the actual board is defective OR maybe there is an issue with 1 of the pins on the cpu

remove and examine the cpu pins also check no thermal paste on pins or socket and then if no good

rma the board
