Hi Guys,
I have an Asus P8Z68-V PRO motherboard that I have had since 2011 and yesterday I tried to install 32gb (4x8) of Corsair Vengeance RAM.
Previously I had 8gb (2x4) of Corsair Dominator RAM in there and it was working fine.
When I installed the new Vengeance sticks my machine would not start up at all and the MemOK! light was on. I followed the instructions in the manual on how to use the MemOK! switch to try different failsafe settings, but that didn't work either.
Eventually I figured the RAM would not work in my PC and I'd have to return it, but when I put the old sticks back in they wouldn't work either! Now I can't get any of the sticks I have to work in any configuration (i.e. one stick at a time or two at a time; different slots; I am not mixing sets).
The Dominator memory was 1600MHz @ 1.65v and the new Vengeance i tried to install was 2400MHz also 1.65v
(This motherboard only accepts DDR3 memory)
I don't know what else I can try; I've put the sticks in after resetting the cmos and still nothing.
Am I overlooking something important?
