Motherboard: ASROCK FM2A88X-ITX+
CPU: A10-6700
RAM: F3-1600C9D-8GAO (2 sticks of G.Skill Ares 4MB)

This is my first PC Build. If I power up the motherboard without ram installed, the heatsink fan come on and I get 3 beeps indicating no memory. However, after installing 1 or 2 sticks or RAM, there it doesn't post or have any video output. I have tried all the different combinations of RAM and slots. Does this definitely mean my RAM is bad?
