So one of my Sticks remains "dark". I say this because there is a glow from some LEDs still there. The other stick is working and I can open the control software and change its mode.
However, for a period of time i could not use the software because the sticks were not recognized.
I figured out that this is related to an entry in the SPD. It is important that Line 1F0 States
52 47 42 and the rest zeroes. As some of you may notice this states RGB in ASCII. So one of the sticks did not have that and i used typhoon burner to change that and write it into the SPD, and afterwards i was able to access the software again. But i have not figured out how to get the LEDs on the second one working again... It seems so awkward that there does not seem to be any proper reset functionality on the hardware...
Edit1: So I just did another read of the SPD by Typhoon Burner just after system restart and it showed CRC errors for both sticks. Also the LED animation of the working module was set to color circle, not rainbow mode. So I went in the software and set it to Default (was successfully applied). Then I reread the SPD again and the CRC errors are gone.
I wish GSkill would provide fresh SPDs for all their kits so we could use them to reset the sticks. I have the feeliung that this would help a lot
Edit2: I just removed the working stick from the system and tried with only the other stick inserted. When only the non working stick is in the control program will always crash. I had a backup of the working sticks spd and flashed it onto the non working one but that did not change a thing.
I am using them on a MSI B350 Tomahawk Arctic on Bios Revision H4 with an Ryzen 5 1600. The kit is the F4-3200C16D-16GTZR
