p8z77-v deluxe mb

MB will not recognize any ram...

Possibly the memory is incompatible with the motherboard/CPU.

What model/part number memory is trying to be used?

Could try clearing CMOS.

I have tried gskill 1600 16gsm, Corsair Vengeance 1866 c9r. I purchased 3 boards from ebay, hoping it's an easy solution as I have tried 2 boards with same results. What would clearing cmos do as I have not tried that? I thank you for all of you help.

Clearing CMOS resets the system BIOS to default settings so it should be able to better detect changes in memory modules being used.

Again, the memory might be incompatible with the motherboard.

Here are lists of KNOWN compatible memory for the P8Z77-V Deluxe -

Corsair

G.Skill


If the memory being tried is NOT on any of the above lists, then it is possible the memory is incompatible. But this is not necessarily always the case, as some memory may not have yet been tested, so the memory being tested might be compatible anyway.

Note that trying to run two or more individual modules NOT from a dual channel kit may not work as the memory characteristics may be too dissimilar between the modules to allow compatible operation. This applies to modules with the same part number as well, as each module has its own unique characteristics. So it might require trying several modules (with the same part number) to find a compatible memory combination, AND assuming that the modules are compatible with the motherboard to begin with.

Thank You. I will clear cmos and see what happens...
