Is it safe if I add ram from a dead pc?

[moneer]

Hey guys. I have a pc that died recently. The beep codes say that it's a RAM issue, although I tried reseating the ram and keeping one in at a time. Still the pc wouldn't turn on. Do you guys think it's safe to use the ram in a different pc?

yes

As long as the ram wasn't damaged when your previous build was working it should work fine.

All you can do is try it and report back with the results.

Okay. And if I don't touch the ram already installed in my current working computer, I shouldn't run into any trouble, right?

Yes, it is safe to add RAM in another PC. Try it but carefully.

That's a very vague question you've just asked. I'm not sure why you're asking it, but if you wanted an answer you would need to provide detailed specs and its intended purpose, to which you might get an answer for whether it is good enough for the task(s) you have in mind.

No, you need to get a Haswell-E, with 64GB of DDR4, and seven 1TB SDDs.
