I'm trying to install my Corsair Vengeance DDR5 RAM, but it just won't click down. I've applied even pressure on both sides, but it still feels stuck, and I'm worried I might break something. My motherboard only has one clip on one side, which might be adding to the issue. Any tips?

Make sure there’s no dust or dirt in the slot. A quick clean can help! Also, ensure that the RAM is aligned correctly with the middle notch. It’s easy to think it’s seated when it isn’t, especially with a clipless side.
What motherboard are you using? Sometimes the RAM slots can be tricky, especially if they don’t have clips on both sides. Just double-check that you’re lining up the notch in the RAM with the slot properly.
Sounds frustrating! Sometimes, just giving it a bit more firm pressure helps, but do it carefully to avoid breaking the RAM. If you’re really unsure, check your motherboard manual for any specific installation tips or quirks.
It's the Asus Prime B650-Plus.
