What Ram for motherboard.

[ryanpaintsfaces]

I have a
GIGABYTE GA-H110M-S2H LGA1151 Intel H110 Micro ATX DDR4 Motherboard
and have ordered two different sets of ram and neither fit, both had to be returned. What ram would fit this motherboard? My first time building a pc, and this is what I am having my main issue with, I have everything but this.

What do you mean by "didn't fit". ANY DDR4 ram will physically fit in that board, if its not, you're doing something wrong.

The notch in the ram doesn't line up with the notch in the motherboard.

What were you RAM modules?

Turns out what I ordered was actually ddr3, but from looking at the pictures of ddr4 it seems like it still won't fit.

Your motherboard will fit any DDR4 Desktop RAM sticks.

What you ordered before are DDR3 RAM where the notch will not physically fit in your motherboard's DDR4 RAM slots. The DDR4 Desktop RAM sticks are standard and compatible with your Gigabyte GA-H110M-S2H motherboard.

You can check your motherboard's Memory Support List here: http://download.gigabyte.us/FileList/Memory/mb_memory_ga-h110m-s2h.pdf (all are DDR4 RAM models)

For peace of mind, here are some examples of your Gigabyte GA-H110M-S2H motherboard fitted with DDR4 RAM sticks:

Example #1 (https://pcpartpicker.com/b/xJKZxr): G.Skill Ripjaws V DDR4 RAM (F4-2133C15D-8GVR) on Gigabyte GA-H110M-S2H

Example #2 (https://pcpartpicker.com/b/2wtJ7P): G.Skill Ripjaws V DDR4 RAM (F4-2133C15D-8GVR) on Gigabyte GA-H110M-S2

Yes if you ordered DDR3 it will not fit.

DDR4 I bet you everything I own will fit fine.
