I'm building a pc which is using an MSI B150I gaming pro ac motherboard, when I try to start the pc up, the fans turn on, a red light appears next to "dram" and there is no output to the monitor. The motherboard manual says -"supports ddr4 2133MHz", but the ram I have instaled is ddr4 2400 MHz. I was wondering if this could be the problem.

Build
MSI B150I Gaming Pro AC motherboard
Ballistix sport 16gb ddr4 2400
Intel Skylake 6600k CPU
Gigabyte 1060 GPU
EVGA 650 Gold PSU
 
Solution
No it will not cause any problem but the speed of the RAM will get limited to 2133MHz. You will not be getting 2400MHz.

That RAM is compatible with Motherboard no problem.
