Motherboard is ECS G41T-M7 v1.1
Old RAM is 1 2gb stick of Kingston HyperX Blu KHX1333C9D3B1/2G
New RAM is 2 4gb sticks of Pareema MD313C81609L2

Should I be sending for a replacement or a new set?
 
Try using each module separately, it is unlikely that both of them are dead. If the PC boots with one, but not the other one, you know which one is faulty. You can also try to reset your BIOS settings with CLR_CMOS jumper on the mobo or removing the battery for a minute and putting it back (unplug the PC from the wall beforehand).
