Hi Ahmed_30,

Here is a list of the RAM modules compatible with your motherboard:

http://www.asrock.com/mb/memory/G41M-VS3.pdf

It doesn't officially support any 4GB model 1333MHz modules. It does support DDR3-1066 4GB models, specifically the Kingston KVR1066D3N7.

Hi,

did you adjust the jumper; you need to find FSB1.
Your cpu should work since it 1333 fsb speed

from manual


FSB1 Jumper

(FSB1, 3-pin jumper, see p.10 No. 26)
If you adopt FSB1333-CPU and DDR3 1333 memory module on this motherboard, you
need to adjust the jumper. Please short pin2, pin3 for FSB1 jumper. Otherwise, the
CPU and memory module may not work properly on this motherboard. Please refer to
below jumper setting.

older chipsets and new memory may not work out look at this for a example before you spend good money


Hi, I'm Jewel with Kingston Technical Support and would like to offer our assistance. It is possible that the HyperX 4GB memory modules are Single Rank as the latest builds of that part number are Single Rank. Up until recently 4GB modules were standard Dual Rank. Basically, the issue that can occur is that the memory module uses high capacity individual memory chips (DRAM) that the motherboard is not equipped to recognize. Usually, if a motherboard is able to recognized standard 8GB modules it should not have an issue recognizing Single Rank 4GB modules. A "1R" may be printed on the label which would indicate it as single rank. Otherwise, we can confirm this based on a reference number printed on the memory label that we can look up in our system. Other common issue with the DDR2/DDR3 combo motherboards that can be overlooked is that it only supports DDR2 OR DDR3 memory. This means you cannot have both DDR2 AND DDR3 memory installed at the same time, it is an either/or option. We do not currently support your PFG41C-M LX motherboard as we no longer manufacture memory that would be compatible with that motherboard. For any further assistance, please call us at 1-800-435-0640 (USA and Canada only) M - F 6am - 6pm PT and I or another available Technician will assist you. Please be sure to have the part in question on hand when you call.


as she says same memory same p[art number not the same ic's use today as was before ?? and '' PFG41C-M LX motherboard as we no longer manufacture memory that would be compatible with that motherboard.'' [this is with any brand is this way now ]

hope your best answer works out
good luck
