Kris Meister :
Hi, I own an EVGA 132-BL-E758-TR
Here is the spec sheet:
http://www.evga.com/products/pdf/132-BL-E758.pdf
I upgraded the Bios to 83, which appears to be the latest from the EVGA forums.
Its pretty old but i wanted to upgrade.
I purchased this ram:
http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16820011002
However, it will not boot. The LED display on the motherboard gives the codes F3 and F6 then blinks and will reboots continuously.
Did I choose the incorrect RAM or is there another issue?
Things I have tried:
- Clearing the CMOS, via the button on the MB
- 1 stick of ram at a time. All of my old sticks will boot, but non of my new sticks.
I think that RAM is not compatible. Also I checked the Avexir website. Strangely the RAM you've purchased Avexir Core Series 4GB 240-Pin DDR3 SDRAM DDR3 1600 (PC3 12800) Memory Kit Model AVD3U16001104G-1CIR is not listed there.
These are the RAMs supported by X58 motherboards:
