Hi Tom's,
I just built my first PC. At first it turned on but didn't display anything.
So I reseated the RAM and then it wouldn't even start.
I think my RAM may be incompatible, because the mobo showed Q Code 53, which I believe means RAM incompatibility. I checked the mobo manual for my asus hero's compatible RAM, and mine wasn't listed.
My RAM is Ripjaws X 1866 CAS 8, or
F3-14900CL8D-8GBXM
In my manual it says this is compatible:
F3-14900CL9D-8GBSR(XMP)
So they are a bit different is this what is causing my problems?
Thanks for your time.
