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

    yeah, just best ptactice. I’ve build 5 desktops over the years, never cared about static discharge, and only ever had a mobo fail after a 4-5 year lifespan

      People think this and end up like OP.

      Often the symptoms resulting from damage are subtle, irritating, and situationally intermittent.

      maybe you built your PC on a humid day or didn’t happen to do anything to raise a charge, But I wouldn’t go around telling other people that it’s not necessary.
