So for Christmas I got 16 gbs id g skill ram. I'm just slowly but surely upgrading pc parts. I Have a alienware x51 that I installed a gtx 760 in and was looking forward to putting the ram in simply. Intel likes to make you screw and unscrew your pc the most painful task and purposely hard to access. So while pushing the lever on one side with ease for the ram I expect the same with the other side. I Was impossible to do and I scratched the side of my graphic card extender but seemed to be okay. Then I realized you can't push it out you just slide it. I installed booted it up had two beep code then I undid it again seeded the ram correctly. Then when I started it I had a Intel hd graphics display tray which I never had before. I was like that's weird. I played hearthstone, realized it was slow which it never is. Reduced the graphics to Low. Then it was back to normal speed so I assumed I was going off the Intel gcard then the 760 so went to device manager. Disabled it. Huge mistake! Went black so I once again opened up my pc took out the bios battery then reconnected it. Started it up bios reset and works. I enable Intel graphics. The gtx works fine. I play hearthstone and works great on high then my display turns off but my pc continues to run as if nothing happens. I tested the monitor and it works fine. I push the power button on my tower and it won't turn off unless it's a hold rather than a tap which is also not normal. I Restart the pc over and over and same problem continues. Any suggestions?

i was just on it fine and dandy. i checked device manger and it says that my 760 is "working properly" don't know if that doesn't rule it out but then i checked my ram. it's installed fine. i opened nvidia experience and took a good while to work but it launched then i launched warframe (a steam game) and then it went black again. please any help would be greatly appreciated. yeah i did check the componets and i opened up, disconnected and replugged up everything make sure it's fine. I'm not a cherry at this since i went through a lot of procedures.
