Hi,
I'm trying to upgrade the memory from 4 gb to 16 gb but I'm having a problem. When I put in the new 2 x 4gb memory chips and boot up the computer all I get is beep beep beep beep beep etc, then the computer shuts down. My mother board is a Gigabyte Ga-ep45t-ud3lr and the memory that came with the computer is 2x4gb DDR3/ 1600mhz. The memory I'm trying to install is Corsair CMZ8GX3M2A1600C9b Memory DDR3 2X240DIMM Vengeance.
Memory Size
8GB (2 x 4GB)
Type of Memory
DDR3
Speed
1600MHz
Pin Configuration
240-pin DIMM
I researched the mother board and found that it will handle 16gb of memory. My computer was built by cyber power. I contacted the tech support and was told my mother board can only support 4gb of memory to each slot. I have tried to install 4gb in each slot, 4 slots, but I still get the beeps, then shut down. It should not be this difficult to install memory in a computer. I am by no means a computer genius so any help you could provide me would be greatly appreciated.
Thank you in advance.
