Mobo is a Gigabyte X570 Aorus Pro WIFI with 32G Corsair Vengence DDR4 3200 memory. Previous CPU is a Ryzen 9 3900X.
Shut down the PC, pulled out the old CPU, inserted the 5950X, added Artic Silver and water cooler. Started PC, lights and fans come on but no boot. Mobo error lights indicate memory issue. Shut down, removed memory, installed Corsair 32G DDR4 3200 memory from my wife's working PC, no boot. Removed 5950X and installed 3900X. Booted. removed my wife's 32G sticks and installed mine, and the PC booted.
Does the 5950X have any strict memory issues for it to be installed or am I looking at a bad CPU (I just bought it from Amazon)?
Thanks.
