Hey Folks, Over the last few days I have had a series of BSODs that relate to memory. A mem test has indicated something is faulty. What isn't suggested is which DIM, so I will conduct further testing tomorrow.

However, a friend of mine with a B450 reported that, while he was getting memory issues, testing each dual set one at a time showed no problems. It wasn't until he occupied all 4 slots that RAM issues would be apparent. This would then point to the board/cpu combination and utilizing 4 slots.

Has anyone here had issues with the B550 Tomahawk and 5900x using all 4 dimms?

I have the Corsair Vengeance Pro RGB in 4x8gb config running XMP 3200.
 
It can happen.

Filing all 4 dimms on a motherboard can add extra stress to the memory controler, try setting the timmings manually and adding a bit more voltage if memtests are good.
