Two years ago I bought a 8gb (2*4gb) kit of G-Skill ares 1866 ram. Recently I got a second kit because newegg had in on sale. I can't get my pc to boot properly now. When I first got the Second kit the pc did not boot at all so I updated bios and tested each stick to make sure they wernt bad. All sticks are good. I can put ether kits In and it works fine with 2 sticks but when all 4 are in I have to hit the power button then wait 10 secs then hit reset then it slowly loads and runs fine after that and windows can use all 16gb.
I know they are same exact kits as they had same link on newegg and everything matchs on labels.
In the bios it shows some very minor timing g differences in the long list of times between new and old kit (I know nothing about ram timings).
System:
AMD FX6350
ASROCK 990fx extreme 4(bios 2.7)
HIS 7870ghz
GSKILL ares 1866 (4×4gb)
Cool master 700m
Samsung 840evo 120gb (win 7 64bit,50% full)
WD 500gb blue (storage)
