Please check out my first question here: http://www.tomshardware.com/answers/id-2403269/major-memory-problems.html
So I got myself a similar 4GB stick (This one), put them both in both slots with the same color, and turnd the PC on. At first, it seemed to be working fine, but then my pc just crushed (not a BSOD or anything, just shut down). I also tried using memtest86, first time it crashed 2 seconds in, then it took aroudn 10 minutes, and then it made a complete pass with 0 errors before I stopped it myself. I tried putting the sticks on the other 2 slots, but for some reason the PC didn't recognize them (it made a long bipping sound and didn't show up anyhting, not even the Post screen). What should I do? It's clearly not a software problem, and the RAM sticks show up good when tested seperately with memtest86.
My specs are:
Intel Core i5 750 2.67GHz
Geforce GTX 570
8GB Ram (2 sticks of 4GB This one)
My PSU is 750W and is new

PC worked a bit weird (Didn't decompress large archives and sometimes BSOD) just yesterday before I took the 2x2GB which one of them was faulty, but atleast it didn't crash everytime I did something a little bit demanding.
