On first power up when I built my computer I had to let it run overnight with memory training. I built it with four 16 GB sticks that came in two packages, but I mixed them up so I can't be sure if sticks from one package were both on Channel A, B.
After that the system would fail in strange ways at ranfom times after it was on for a few hours.

I was endlessly frustrated with the software for months before considering using memcheck

I ran memcheck and found the memory I got was failing bit fade test. Their DRAM was too dynamic.

I yelled at the manufacturer and they replaced it, cleared boot in 10 mins and no crashes.
Kingston was so passive in replacing the memory that I think they knew of a QC problem they were trying to hide.

P.S. How do I insert a whole post without just posting the link?

It's Intel and I waited more than 30 minutes on 64 GB before giving up.

The mobo is an Aero X790 G if you want to look up bios settings to disable so it actually boots. Sometimes I can get it to BIOS with one stick in. I'm going to bed tonight with all four in and it is goes to post I'm going to set everything back in and wait.

Sounds like its the RAM. For whatever reason its common for the problem to be bad RAM fresh out of the box. Try to see what happens without any RAM at all if you can boot into bios with your set up that way or just get a spare set at an electronics store nearby.
 
Update on my endless misery: I let the empty box with four sticks 'train' all night and it's still going so I am forced to assume that is not it.

I am never buying a mobo without a beeper or post code display again btw

Do you still have a tower you could test the ram sticks in?

I had a friend that had similar issues when he built his PC, and it turned out the RAM was bad and buying new sticks fixed his issues and he could boot. The fact that you are able to get to the BIOS occasionally is a good sign that everything else appears to be fine. I would recommend grabbing some new RAM locally so you can easily return if installing the new RAM doesn’t end up working.

Yeah I bought new RAM and it's still doing it.

In case anyone is wondering it's a Gigabyte Aero Z790 G and I am never buying another Gigabyte product. I've read through the entire manual and it literally does not even mention a single time that it does memory initializion. In the section about the debug lights it just says: light that it's stuck on = malfunctioning part. So it's literally telling me that 8 sticks of memory have all gone bad when it's simply undergoing some secret process it doesn't tell you about.

The motherboard was insanely expensive at the time I bought it and it came with a fucking Wi-Fi antenna but it doesn't come with a small diagnostic display or a speaker, and the instructions it comes with flat out omits its own features and diagnoses faulty parts incorrectly.
 
I'd just get another motherboard. Maybe it's got compatibility issues with something you've got installed on it or a pins fucked somewhere. Less headache to just get a new one that's not shit.
 
I've had only good experiences with Gigabyte MOBOs, it gets far worse. Though they should probably stay in their lane of consumer ITX/ATX boards.

It's possible to buy and install an aftermarket motherboard speaker.

There is a 2xN header somewhere on the board with color coding for this stuff, every one of their boards has it. Though I expect the beeper is not going to be as descriptive as he needs.
Especially if he got a enterprise board there is no excuse to fail to have C64 level of documentation with any and all possible reasons it could fail.
 
Tomorrow's stream needs to be 3 hours of memes of Hasan electrocuting his dog.

I don't know, but I found another version of the meme.

Have you looked into getting one of those minipcs? I got one to replace my 10 year old plus desktop that won't support windows 11 and it works very well. It came with everything I needed in a small box for like $400. It has lots of ram, a good image of windows 11 pro preinstalled without microsoft account stuff, and an ok ssd. I know it sucks to abandon the hardware you spent a lot on but it's not worth the hassle. These mini pcs can stream easily and if you wanted to do a gaming stream you could get a $100 occulink dock and use the power supply and gpu you already have. Most of the new mini pcs should also be able to play none demanding games well without it though. Mine has the AMD 8845HS processor and it's very good performance and supports alot of ram.

I was going to suggest this. With Josh-audio-descriptions of each meme and what the reference is. Some of the funniest memes for years.

The event itself is now case closed - if a summary is needed: Hasan appeared to shock his dog to prevent it from moving from its allotted duty as stream background scenery which it had already endured for 4 hours at that point.
After first lying that the dog had caught a claw while turning around causing it to yelp, he the lied that she was only wearing a vibration collar, and finally showed the thing on stream as proof, whereupon top kiwifarms and twitter OSINT autists identified that it was indeed a shock capable model, but the shock prongs had mysteriously been unscrewed, filed or cut off and then covered with black electrical tape.

Further background is that a guest once pointed out on stream that kaya’s collar was far too tight and was choking the animal, and his response implied that he did that for the shock prongs to make reliable contact.
