Hi,
as the title says I've noticed that two of the four ram slots on this motherboard no longer function at all, I've tried various configurations and brands of RAM but when you place any in A2 and B2 the system will fail to boot, no beeps, no display - just the DRAM LED stuck on red.
I've already had to RMA the corsair h100i GTX due to pump failure and only just re-installed it to now have this issue - I've reseated the CPU, CMOS, Cables, Jumpers, GPU, HDD/SSD/NVMe Drives you name it I've tried it but the two ram slots fail to work.
The system thankfully is working A-OK minus those extra sticks but it's an absolute ball-ache to say the least.
Does anyone have any clue what could be wrong?? or is this a lost cause and requiring an RMA? the motherboard was purchased in january 2016 and has been used daily since.
I've already contacted ASUS but they refuse to RMA it and tell me to contact the retailer, which I've done but they too say to contact ASUS - even though it has a 3-year warranty I'm stuck in this endless loop and at my wits end, I do not have the extra £100 to go and buy a new mobo or I would just to get rid of this issue. (the retailer is not overclockers) just throwing that out there.
I've emailed all the ASUS and retailer areas I could + facebook/twitter pages but each one says to contact the other despite.
