Need a bit of advice what exactly went wrong and what should i do, cause reddit etc. is full of different opinions.
I recently upgrade my GPU, CPU and RAM.
Specs are now:
Asus TUF Gaming B550 Plus
Ryzen 9 5950X with Noctua NH-D15S black
G.Skil 2x16GB Trident Z Neo DDR4-3600 CL16 19 19 39 | D.O.C.P
XFX Radeon 9070 XT Swift
BeQuiet Pure Power 13M 750W
Now my problem.
I got random BSoD with an message addressed to an memory error
Checked with MemTest86 and indeed there was a problem, so i checked for JEDEC settings and same result.
I replaced that 2 sticks with 2x8GB DDR4-2400 CL16 16 16 39 in the same 2 slots and checked with MemTest86 again.
Everything fine, no errors and noticeable better performance in booting up the system and so on.
I thought any DDR4-3600 CL16 kit would work, but that isn't the case at all or i am doing something wrong.
I check qvl and yes it is compatible but with ryzen 3000 not ryzen 5000.
Do i missed something since i got BIOS 3621 before installing new cpu and if so what is it?
Cause most ram modules that are compatible, are not available.
Any suggestions?

Yep, checked one stick at the time in one bank with MemTest86. First one was without any problems but second one got error messages from the start.
Well warranty safes me here.

Hi @Asuma2k
After quickly assessing the information above, if the original kit errors in Memtest86+ at JEDEC, then one or more of the sticks are faulty.
