So I bought new G.Skill Ripjaws X 2x4gb 1600 RAM and installed according to both motherboard and RAM manual. At first my pc booted just fine, I checked CPU-z and saw my memory was running at something in 400 so I rebooted my computer and I activated the xmp profile after which it worked fine on 800mhz (yes I know the formula in which ram speeds when dual memory is always x2). After a while mostly after closing full screen games blue screens appeared but also just randomly. Another issue I have is my pc won't boot sometimes, the screen will stay black the motherboard beeps and I have to remove 1 RAM module boot the pc, turn it off and put it back in so it will boot again. This faulty booting is totally random and happens about 1/5 times I boot my pc. I did check if the RAM was compatible with my components and it is.

Could anyone please help me fix these issues?

Thanks in advance

My motherboard is the Asrock 970 Pro3 R.20 and my CPU is the AMD FX-6300.

Aswell I found out when changing my DRAM voltage I noticed it was at 1.50
