I just bought a pair of RAM sticks 2x4gb HyperX Fury and whenever I try to start my computor it just shows a black screen, even though the fans work. When I put the old RAM in, it works just fine. Is the RAM just not compatible with the motherboard?

Motherboard: H57H-AM2
 


I have the RAM that comes with Acer aspire m3910, 2x2 gb DDR3, ive tried several diffrent combinations, im wondering if i have to update my BIOS maybe?
