Gentlemen, I need some expert advice. My two mobo are biostar A55mh and A85S3 both with Kingston HyperX 1x8gb 1333 Mhz ram Non-ECC. I changed the 1x8gb ram with a Corsair 2x4gb ram 1600 MHz Non-ECC and both started blue screening during normal PC use. Per Biostar both mobos support 1600 and 1333 Mhz speeds. Bios updates were done. What would be the cause?
 
Solution
and I'll bet BioStar could offer no help whatsoever :) Bet you money they never even tested w/ 8GB sticks, BioStar is not the best mobos in the world, about even with MSI, sorry but true, any way, try setting the freq to 1600, the DRAM voltage up + 0.05 drom spec and add + 0.12 to the CPU/NB voltage and give it a whirl

Thank you sir. I will try your suggestion when I get home from work tomorrow. II chose biostar as it was affordable and been using these on my last three builds two years ago. It is just really weird is that I don't get any blue screen using the 1x8gb Kingstons 1333 Mhz but started to have the bluescreens when I started to use the 2x4gb Corsairs 1600 Mhz.
