Hi.
I have bought 16gbbdr4 ram for my X99 build and its been some time since i bought that. But now i realize that i can only see that i have 12 gb of Ram in my controll panel? Dafuq?

I got theese ram here X4 "Crucial DDR4 Ballistix 2400MHz 4GB"

Is it not correctly placed in my motherboard?

Check your bios first. Make sure it shows all 4 sticks. If not try reseating the module that is not showing. If it still doesn't show after that then you more then likely got a bad stick. I would also run a memtest which you can find on a Hiren's boot disk to see if any others are starting to go bad. Let it run a full pass. May take 8 hours to test that much memory.

Lol, Thx i checked my ram sticks to see if there was any "Bended" pins on it and it turned out that there was a bit of plastic thing that blocked it a bit so the ram wasnt fitting good enough to make contact But thx man
