New Build 16G RAM Great! 32G No go. I'm stuck.

briansalisbury · Dec 28, 2015

System ran fine with 2X 8G Ram.
Installed Windows. Worked great!
Added additional 2X 8G Ram for a total of 32.

Now system starts but won't go to boot screen.

Removed New Ram. Now System still won't boot.

i7 6700K
Gigabyte G1 GA-Z170X Gaming 7
4X G.Skill TridentZ 8G DDR

Thanks,

Brian

Any time you mix kits its hit or miss you don't mention speed of the kits... But I'd they are less than 1.65v sticks add .05v and try again... If that doesn't work try raising the first timing by one, ... Make sure the slowest stick is closest to the CPU if they are different. Also make sure the kits that cam together are in slots 1-3 and 2-4 not 1-2 3-4

Thank you for responding. I was just able to get 16 (2X 8G) working again.

1.35v slot 1-2.

Haven't dared trying the 32 again yet.

G.Skill FAQs:

Q:
I want to install more memory, in addition to my existing memory kit. What are my options?

A:
We do not recommend mixing memory kits, regardless of brand or model.

By mixing memory kits together, there may be compatibility issues such as unable to boot or unable to operate at rated specifications.

Each of our memory kit are thoroughly tested to ensure compatibility within each memory kit. And because we have not tested our memory kit with your existing memory kit, we cannot guarantee compatibility when multiple kits are used.
