When you say, "won't post", do you mean you can't even get into BIOS?

The RAM you listed is in the QVL for your motherboard and should work. Are you sure the sticks are fully seated? Typically you hear a 'click' when it is fully seated. Are you using slots B2 and A2 (2 and 4)? Have you tried using just one stick in A2 (4)?

No cant get into the bios and ram is fully seated also i have tried 1 stick do you think that this is a motherboard problem

Yes it could be the motherboard. Make sure all your PSU to motherboard connections are fully seated in both PSU and motherboard.

24 pin ATX, 8 pin CPU.

Also make sure your h100i is connected up properly to the motherboard headers and PSU. I'm not sure how many connections the h100i has.

My thought is maybe the yellow dram light might be misleading and the real issue is somewhere else.
