Sup everyone,
I finished building my own gaming PC and when I power it on, the DRAM_LED light to MemOk! stays red. I tried holding down the MemOk! button and letting it flash for 'automatic memory compatibility tuning' and it flashes but does nothing afterwards. My monitor is hooked up and it doesn't show any picture either. I've tried using just 1 stick of the 8gb memory instead of using both, but that doesn't help. Also tried placing it into a different ram slot and that doesn't help.
I have the Asus M5A99FX PRO R2.0 Mobo : http://www.asus.com/Motherboards/M5A99FX_PRO_R20/#support
And the CORSAIR Vengeance 16GB (2 x 8GB) 240-Pin DDR3 SDRAM Memory
http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16820233365
I figure its either my motherboard doesn't support this memory (although it says it does, just doesn't show it in the mobo manual that it supports the corsair vengeance). Or that my memory came DOA. Looked on Mobo QVL again and...I was mistaken, that ram isn't listed. But, the 4x8gb(32gb) corsair vengeance is listed..
So...guess the ram i bought really can't be used on this mobo..
Any help would be appreciated.
