Now I need to take a loan in order to afford 32gb for replacement thanks to the ai bros hoarding all the chips…

Tried on three different PCs, both Intel and AMD, both sticks are damaged, somehow

    Looks like most of the nibbles are fine. Maybe something happened to the connectors or traces. At least you know it’s the ram not your motherboard.

        Idk I just bought a 32GB stick of ddr4 sodimm for $60, adapters are less than $10 each so maybe not if you stay away from scalpers and don’t pay attention to ram speed 😅

        I was also thinking the soldered CPU motherboard with 8 cores must cost at least 200 but maybe that’s a bad assumption and I didn’t look it up.
