Hi all,
I don't know if it's a problem with motherboard or my build but would be nice to ask the community if they've seen or had similar problems.
I first tried to use all 4 of my RAM slots and kept getting error code 0b - I soon found that it seems to be a problem with DIMM slots B1 & B2 - if I try and boot with a stick in either then I get the error code.
I've tried:
BIOS versions 0702, 5704 and am now on 0902 .....on a side note - 5704 kicked up a bigger fuss and was more frequently coming with code 08.
Found a suggestion somewhere that I should loosen the CPU cooler because it could be too tight - I don't know if that's a thing - but I tried it anyway and it still hasn't worked.
I haven't tried:
Another RAM manufacturer (as I don't have any other DDR4 sticks lying around). However, obviously sticks that ran in A1 and A2 still didn't work in B1 or B2 - so I don't believe RAM is an issue.
An additional point that may be important - I can get to BIOS if I boot into safe mode - all 4 sticks are recognised when looking at the info but the system only shows 32GB out of 64GB. The crashing & error code 0b occurs a second or two after exiting the BIOS screen.
