Computer dead when inserting more RAM

[Randhimself]

So basically i already had 2x8gb installed. Then i went to get 2 more 8gb (32 in total). But now when i boot it the monitor doesnt work, nor the keyboard, nor the mouse.
All rams are exactly the same. Same brand and 2400mhz.

What seems to be the problem?

EVEN identical modules purchased at separate times can be incompatible.

that's really odd, i know a lot of ram at 2400 mhz need 1.65 volts to run. Is it possible your second batch is really picky and needs the 1.65 volts. Look on the sticks of ram it should say what it needs. I know that's how my ram was when i bought it. If it does set it in bios to 1.65 its a shot never know it may work

Try removing the original sticks, leaving just the new ones in. See if it then boots

You also might get them to work together if you slow down the RAM timing. If you really need 32GB you'll get a better improvement than what you'll lose by slowing them down.

They may not, however, work with your RAM controller:

Ive tried only putting the new ones in and it works as usual

Probably incompatible , it does happen even when identical modules are purchased at different times , happened to my son with some Crucial Ballistic 2400's.
