PC wont start correctly after RAM upgrade

[tjomi]

Hey!

I just bought a new set of 2, 4gb HyperX ram sticks at 2400MHz. So now i have 4 sticks total (the other two is the same), but when i start my computer it wont start correctly. Monitor gets no signal and my computer starts and restarts several times... how do i fix this?


Thanks in advance

The new RAM may be defective, it may not be compatible with the older set of RAM, or the settings in BIOS may be creating an issue (i.e. too high voltage, too high CPU clock, etc....).

Try removing the original RAM, and try with only the new RAM to verify they are not defective. Look up the BIOS settings needed for the RAM - and make sure that your BIOS is correctly configured.

What's the actual model of DRAM - most Kingston is XMP based while the Fury line in PnP based. Let us know model and if all sticks actually work by themselves and we can try voltage/timing adjustments
