your specific motherboard only Supports Dual Channel DDR3/DDR3L 1600Mhz
http://www.asrock.com/mb/Intel/H97M-ITXac/
any RAM with a higher clock will be downclocked to 1600Mhz

Since you said it is 1.65v it is likely their 2400Mhz offering. Their blitz series has all of their 1600Mhz RAM at 1.5v http://www.avexir.com/product/blitzspec-ddr3.html. In which case return it and get a 1600Mhz kit which should be 1.5v. The extra money spent on the higher clock is wasted since it will be downclocked.

Stated here "Note1: Due to the configuration of chipset, each RAM will downgrade to DDR3 1600 with H97 series chipset."

If you insist upon using that RAM. Can you boot into bios(using the old ram to do it is fine)? If so please reset you bios settings to default.
Then try again.

If that does not work try updating your bios to the latest version.

then try again. If that does not work and the RAM is above 1600Mhz. It is likely that the RAM is simply not supported.

What is the clock speed (Mhz) on your new RAM?

beeps 4 times for a AMI bios is System timer failure. This issue can be caused by any of the below situations.
-New hardware conflicting with old hardware.
-Bad or failing hardware device.
-Connections not connected or connected properly.
-Recent electrical storm that caused a surge that damaged computer.
-Other hardware issue.

Are you certain you have the Bios version 1.9? The 1.9 update has an update to the microde. The microde is what allows your hardware to communicate with one another. It could be why you have the System Timer Failure.

Or maybe the RAM is defective.

Can you try using only 1 ram stick at a time to test if one is defective or causing problems.

Can you check the Bios OC Tweaker and make sure DRAM Frequency is set to [Auto] and DRAM Performance mode is [Default]
You can also try to set DRAM Frequency to 1600Mhz manually

It is very likely the RAM is defective. So you may need to RMA with the manufacturer or return it to the store.
another possibility is that is not compatible with your motherboard. Your Mobo is only rated to use 1600Mhz RAM It can use some 2400Mhz RAM but will slow them to 1600Mhz.

I still suggest returning that RAM and getting 1600Mhz RAM.
The 1600Mhz RAM from the same manufacturer will run faster and cooler than that 2400Mhz RAM.
This is because if you can get it to work the 2400Mhz will be lowered to 1600Mhz and it will use its original RAM timings are 10-12-12-31(lower is better) and the voltage 1.65v
The 1600Mhz averix blitz RAM has timings of 11-11-11-28 and a voltage of 1.5v (less electricity less heat)
