OK, so i have one pair of G.skill Ripjaws V 16gb(2x8gb) 2133mhz ddr4 which is working in my rig for already a year, and i just bought one more exactly the same G.skill Ripjaws V 16gb(2x8gb) 2133mhz ddr4 which are not working, im wondering why. first i have put in all 4 ram's in correct slots (used the manual, and there are tags on motherboard itself) it didn't work, i tried putting only one off the new ones, NO, i tried inserting only the new ones separately, no, i tried mixing them, still no. BTW i cleared cmos every single time after i insert my ram differently. help. my motherboard is saying error "60" when i try to insert them.

My pc:
motherboard:asrock x99x killer/3.1
cpu:intel i7 5820k 3.3ghz
gpu: evga GeForce GTX 1080 SC GAMING
ram: G.skill Ripjaws V 16gb(2x8gb) 2133mhz ddr4
psu: Thermaltake 850W 80 PLUS GOLD
hdd:Seagate 1TB
ssd:m.2 Mushkin Atlas Vital 120GB
os:win10 pro

Simply put their are no guarantees when mixing packages of DRAM. Always best to buy a single package of the full amount of DRAM you want/need. See items 2 and 6 in my Fiction article:

You could try raising the DRAM voltage + 0.05 and the VCCIO voltage an equal amount to try and stabilize
If the two new ones will not work by themselves, in the same slots that the old ones work in, there is probably a problem with them. If either pair will work but both pairs won't work together, this is common and why memory is sold in matched pairs of four. DDR3 and DDR4 are notoriously finicky about playing in unmatched sets.

You can try relaxing the timings and increasing the voltage a bit. Someone else will come along and give you more precise advice.
