[SOLVED] ram and slots

[Badral231]

i had a 4GB ram ( PC3-10600U ) ( 1333mhz)
board h55(mini)(DUAL -channel).
I bought a new 4GB ram ( PC3-12800 )(
1666mhz ). So here's problem.

Both ram works fine one by one on slot 1. Both doesn't But neither of them work on slot 2 (monitor keeps black). When using both on slot 1, 2. ( 10600u )( 12800 ) in this case pc works fine but 12800 doesn't show on ( hardware says 4GB installed ), (12800)(10600U) in this case pc turns on but monitor keeps black. I explained as much as i can. Feel free to ask me other question.

Your 2 DRAM modules are incompatible with each other. It is best to buy a 2 piece DRAM "kit" to ensure they will be compatible with each other. Also check the in the approved vendors list that the "kit" is compatible with the mobo.

Yep, these two modules don't like each other. Since this is ddr3, getting an identical module of either type should solve the issue unless you have a motherboard issue.
