I recently purchased 4GB G.Skill DDR3 PC3-10666 1333MHz Ripjaw Series (8-8-8-24) Dual Channel kit when i put them on together with my old Ram kit Kingston HyperX 4 GB Kit (2x2 GB Modules) 1333 MHz DDR3 Desktop Memory KHX1333C7D3K2/4GX my computer restarting over and over again any solutions? (work normally when you use them separately each kit )

Your Kingston memory is 7-7-7-21 @1.65 volt memory your new memory is 8-8-8-24 @ 1.5 volts.
Your going to have issues mixing memory a lot of the time. Plus the fact you just added 2 more sticks putting more stress on the controller. I would go into BIOS and manually set the timings to 8-8-8-24 then install the new memory and try the 4 sticks like that.
You should of either bought another set of the same exact memory you had (still no guarantee it would play nice together) or just bit the bullet and get a 2X4GB set that would of been the best thing just buying a new set.
29 Bucks at newegg for the 8GB set.

GSkill is the only memory I buy.
