[SOLVED] Blue Screen after RAM upgrade

[Case237]

A couple days ago I got some new RAM for my system. I already had 2x4gb HyperX DDR4 2133, and I got 2x4gb at 2933 and installed it. Soon after I got a blue screen, I don’t know the error code, but I went into BIOS and turned the speed down of all the RAM to 2133. I then got a few more blue screens and I got an update software that updated all of my drivers then it seamed to work. About two hours into gaming last night I got another blue screen then after reboot I got another one 30 mins later. The code for the last one was “system thread not handled” and the one before that also had something to do with system thread. Any help would be appropriated, Thanks

Did you take the old RAM out before you used the new RAM?

No, I wanted to use all 16gb

It might be that they are not compatible together, or that one or both new sticks are broken. You should try the new ones by themselves.

Using them right now, they seem to be doing fine . I think I’m going to try putting a slower kit in the 1 and 3 slots

Whatever the slowest speed is what everything will run at. This means your 2933 will run at the slower speed. Also, you might get more problems if you use mismatched RAM.
