Hello,
I just got a new graphics card rtx 3060ti for my prebuilt hp omen 880-100no.
I was using the pc earlier today as it was when it was purchased and it was working normally but tonight I replaced the psu for a higher wattage one and placed my new gpu in. I went to turn on the PC fitted with the upgrades and i heard 3 long beeps followed by 2 short beeps. The fan blades spin but on the gpu they spin at first then stop, nothing shows up on the display and there is no response from mouse or keyboard. I checked online to see and found out its a memory initializitaion error so i individually checked my 2x8gb ram sticks and i still get the same post error.
Does this mean my ram is now faulty? Should i buy new ram? Any help would be greatly appreciated 😄

hi
if you have tested each module in each slot, and it does not work, there may be no point in replacing them..
Two modules failing at the same time, it's quite rare
Now you say it's due to an upgrade, possibly it's a problem, further to that..
in case try without the graphics card, each slot / memory module
possibly try with a new module only (it will probably be possible to send it back / refund if it does not work either
Before any manipulation
disconnect the power supply!
long press the on/off button, a good moment (the power supply light should go out)
use a special bracelet
