Hello I searched existing threads but I really didn't find anything useful. So I bought new RAM 1x8gb and replaced 2x2 gb. I mounted the new ram and after that computer keeps restarting (it doesn't load windows, it just turns on and in couple of seconds turns off and so on..)I didn't mix RAM only the new one is in. When I try the old ones it works.

Motherboard: P7H55-M SI
New RAM: Kingston hyper X 8gb 1333MHz
Windows 64-bit
 
Solution
H55 doesn't take 8GB sticks, nor will it normally work with newer DRAM (all of which is made with high density memory ICs (chips). Would want something like the GSkill NT series of value DRAM in a 2x4GB config (made with low density ICs)
