what motherboard is

[djreedj]

what motherboard is compatible with HyperX Fury 1866 memory. I don't believe my Asus z97-a/usb 3.1 is compatible because it won't go to post. Part number HX318C10FBK2/16

Please try a single stick in slot A2 to see what happens. If it does not work, please try the other.

Please refer to this chart for where to place sticks on this board. While not always an issue, one some boards this makes the difference.

EDIT.
Here is the QVL. other sticks may work.

Try resetting the CMOS and then try, would guess old DRAM is XMP based, the Fury run off PnP

I did reset CMOS and everything seems fine, one question though, do I need to reinstall drivers after that?

If you've already installed, then no, they will still be there 😉
