Motherboard issue with ram

[mrrcookie]

Basically, the display doesn't work when I turn on the computer. I did some troubleshooting and found that the display turns on when there's only 1 stick of 4gb ram. However, when i tested both 4gb sticks on a different computer, they work perfectly fine. Is there any reason for this?

Install first RAM stick in slot#1 (closer to the CPU) of your mobo. Boot and see what happens.
Install second RAM stick in slot#1 of your mobo. Boot and see what happens.

Report then.

One of the ram sticks won't work with any slot on the motherboard.

Are you sure your memory speed is supported by your CPU and Mobo?

please add your a link to your CPU as well. The issue could be lack of CPU support for your RAM

If one won't work in any slot by itself it's prob bad or going bad and with those tight timings your mobo may just not like it - could try installing the other stick and set the timings to 8-8-8-24 and then if that boots OK add the other stick

I have an fx-6300 black edition

Tradesman1 is probably right, adjust your timings and try again with a single stick. If that doesn't work, but you are sure both sticks are working, then it is probably a problem with the DIMM slots on your mobo. I would suggest replacing it.

I had the same RAM in a previous build and when I recieved them 2 were malfunctioning the same as yours. G.Skill is a good company and if you purchased them from newegg you still have a chance to return them. It's most likely a bad stick.
