I bought a new Kingston 4 GB RAM a week ago.

Firstly, let me tell you how my system is built.

Monitor : Sony BRAVIA KDL EX4200 1920x1080
Motherboard : Gigabyte H61M-S2P R3(LGA 1155 socket)
CPU : Intel core i3-2120 3.3 GHz
GPU : XFX AMD RADEON R9 270X (not overclocked)
RAM : Kingston 8 GB(4+4) GB 1333 MHz (previously 4+2 GB....perfectly working over 2 yrs)
PSU : Corsair VS 650
Now, as I told you that I bought the RAM a week ago to replace my existing 2 GB of that to make a 8 GB gaming system.....but, after installing that, when I started Call of Duty AW or AC Unity (on Win 7 64 bit).......those high end games got crashed as they were using an avg. of 6.5 GB of RAM(sometimes after loading and sometimes in the gameplay)........it did not stop my system but the game to respond......

I thought that it may be a problem to my GPU......so I got an replacement of it, but that was happening again.......I changed the new ram, the old ram.................those crashes were happening again and again. BUT, when I did install the old 2 GB RAM on the place of the new RAM.........it was running perfectly.......
though there were shutters.....WHATEVER, pls pls pls help me.........I'm reallly sorry for this long post........thank u.

Can you post the exact specification of the 4+4 memory?
The specs for your motherboard say:

1) 2 x 1.5V DDR3 DIMM sockets supporting up to 16 GB of system memory
2) Dual channel memory architecture
3) Support for DDR3 1333/1066/800 MHz memory modules
4) Support for non-ECC memory modules
5) Support for Extreme Memory Profile (XMP) memory modules
* To support XMP memory, you must install an Intel 22nm (Ivy Bridge) CPU.

thank u...it works.....but sometime it shows that "out of memory" or "paging file size is too short".
As I have Win 7 64 bit....with 8 GB of RAM....it should not show this message ( the game takes approx. 6.75 GB avg. according to task mannager). What should I do now?......Should I format my PC & reinstall my system? thanks for replying.......
