Good evening,
I've question for you, which i am prety positive you'll answer prety easily.
I've Gigabyte H61M-DS2H Rev 2.0 With 1x 4gb DDR3 1333Mhz Kingston Ram.
Let's say, for reasons unknown, i want to add into my second free slot (1out of2) Oldie but goldie 2GB DDR3 1333Mhz rendition(or Crucial, dunno) Should work right?
Well this is where devil comes in.
Everytime i am trying to pop it together, computer goes into some sort of frenzy. Boots for 3-4 seconds and then restarts over and over again.
Where might be the problem? It could be outdated BIOS, i said to myself, but after some browsing in Gigabyte official website BIOS update page, non of the updates add more compatibility of new/old memory(could it be that it's not that important for them to write it in description?).
So what do you guys think, what could be devil in this one eh?
Some random things i think you should know:
1. BIOS there's no such thing as X.M.P
2. I did try both these RAM's in my older Mobo and it worked fine(can't use it becouse CPU is not compatible though)
3. I did try to Boot with only old RAM Same effect, as i mention before It does work in older Mobo tho even when i pop both fo them.
4. I did try to disconect everything except CPU+heatsink,GPU and then add both of these RAMs
