I purchased a refurbished Z97-pro gamer motherboard to build for my Grand Daughter, this will be my second build so by no means an expert, and given the fact that I am 73 years young,
Anyway I am taking the parts out of a another motherboard that has I believe a faulty motherboard, I am using an Intel i7 – 4790K processor, a noctua NH-L9x65 cooler, the Ram I am using are: "Corsair Vengeance Pro Series DDR3 CMY16GX3M2A1600C9 4 X 8GB" these worked fine with the ASUS Z97 - WS motherboard, but do not show in the QVL capability chart, I went to ASUS web page and looked up there and they don't show.
I am trying to Bread board and am getting nothing, could the Ram be the problem, just trying to eliminate possibilities before I send this board back.
Thank you advance for any help
