I have an ASUS P5QC (pc3-10666) with 2x Kingstone KVR 1333 2GB. I purchased 2x Corsair xms3 1333 4GB (pc3-10600) and when I install the new RAM, my PC doesn't boot. My BIOS ver. 2103
 
Solution
4 GB modules have to be low-density (8 chips on each side for a total of 16 chips). Unless they are several years old, they most likely are high-density.

In that case I cannot do anything but return them?
