Hey I want a tech support second opinion.
A couple of days ago I got a BSOD. The dump suggested a RAM error, but while I tried to replicate the issue I couldn't. I thought it was just a one of and continued like normal.
Today, I got a weird thing. On a reboot, the computer didn't want to "launch" again. All things turned on, but I got "No Signal" on my two screens and nothing was seemingly running. After hard reseting again, it booted normally but after a bit it kind of hanged and became unresponsive.
I turned it off and tried to do a memtest and the thing hanged again mid memtest.
Again I turned it off and left it disconnected for an hour while I did some errands and when I turned it on again it worked fine. I've had it on since and it hasn't hanged or had any issues.
I feel like this is a RAM issue, one of the sticks is faulty and wants to get replaced. Maybe shorting sometimes or something that's causing the hangs, but I'm not sure. I've had no issues with the machine aside from these. Am I right on the mark or should I be on the lookout for other stuff?
For reference, my mobo is an ASUS TUF B450 and my ram is 4 8GB GEIL RGB sticks. I haven't opened it up since it's currently running fine but I expect failure from one of these things any moment now.
