I have purchased a new RAM module for my computer. It is an 8 GB, 1600 MHz module, running at 1.5v. My problem is, that whenever I attempt to boot with the new module, the computer will power on, start POST, and then restart itself. It recognises that it is running in single channel mode, but it doesn't display the amount of RAM. My computer boots fine with the old RAM (2 GB 1333 MHz RAM). I am fairly sure that my motherboard only supports 1333 MHz RAM, but to my understanding, the ram should clock itself down? I have tried the RAM in all of the (2) ports available on the motherboard, with and without my old card. The only way I can manage to get it to boot is solely with the old module.
Any help will be greatly appreciated!
My specs are:
ECS H55H-I motherboard
i3-530
650W FSP PSU
Palit Jetstream GTX 760
The new RAM is one Transcend 8 GB module (JM1600KLH-8G)
