All,
I have a H87-HD3 based system that I built some time ago with a pair of Kingston Hyperx blu DD3 modules KHX16C10B1K2/16x (total 16Gb) in slots 1 and 3. I wanted to increase my memory as much as possible and the manual gave 32gb as the max supported to I purchased a 2nd pair of DDR3, this time Hyperx Red. KHX16C10B1RK2/16x. these went into slots 2 and 4.
The system failed to boot, fans spun up and then stopped, before spinning up again and then stopping in an endless loop.
I tested just the two new modules, and they worked fine in slots 1 and 3.
The mb manual suggested installing 'like' memory modules in the same colour slots, which implies pairing them in slots 1 and 2, and then in slots 3 and 4 which I tried also with the same result.
I don't have a clue why this might not work.
Any suggestions?
Regards Martin
