Sorry if I'm reposting a question that has already been answered. But I went through a lot of researching from adjusting voltages of the RAM to adjusting timings of the RAM too. I also updated my BIOS to the latest version, in hopes that it will fix the issue. But none of these tweaks worked.
So here's the problem, I recently bought a Kingston Hyper X Fury Black 16gb set @ 1866mhz DDR3 to replace my old G.skill F3-1600C9D-8GAO 8gb set @ 1600mhz DDR3. After installing the new ram, my computer keeps on saying "Overclocking Failed", and directs me to the BIOS screen. So I went back to using my old ram, and the issue was solved. then I inserted the new ram once again and tweaked some things, and then when i inserted my old ram again, the error message "Overclocking Failed" popped up too. This is realllllly frustrating as I can't contact ASUS/Kingston support centers. I also changed the placements of the rams, and the issue still persists.
Here are my computer specs
ASUS P8Z68-V PRO/GEN3 Motherboard
MSI GTX960 4gb
i7-2600k @ 3.4 GHz
Antec 750w
Kingston Hyper X Fury Black 16gb set @ 1866mhz DDR3///or///G.skill F3-1600C9D-8GAO 8gb set @ 1600mhz DDR3
Note: I checked the compatibility of the ram to my motherboard and cpu, and it says it's compatible as well.

update: Now it won't even go into the BIO screen
it shows "Reboot and Select proper Boot device or Insert Boot Media in selected Boot device and press a key"
