Here are my specs to start off:

CPU: i5-7600k with Coolermaster evo
MOBO: Gigabyte GA-Z270P-D3 ATX LGA1151
GPU: Geforce GTX 1070
PSU: Thermaltake SMART 550W 80+ Bronze Certified

So I recently bought EVGA DDR4-2400Mhz 4x8Gb RAM to upgrade from Kingston HyperX Fury Black 8GB (2 x 4GB) DDR4-2133Mhz Memory. The HyperX Fury worked fine but as soon as I installed the new 2400Mhz RAM my PC is power cycling on and off repeatedly. I put the old RAM back inand it works fine. Does anyone know why this may be happening?

Using TWO dual channel kits to make up four modules? If so, then the issue may be due to differences in memory characteristics between the two dual channel kits.

Try placing the two modules from one kit in slots 1 & 3, and place the two other modules from the other kit in slots 2 & 4. Clear CMOS.

If still have issues, increase DRAM Voltage by 0.05 V. Don't exceed 1.35 V.

If still have problems, increase VCCSA Voltage by 0.05 V (if this option is available in BIOS).

I apologize for not being more specific but I meant to say that I want to only use the 2x8Gb EVGA 2400Mhz memory sticks and not use the 2x4Gb. When I only use the EVGA 2400 memory i get the power cycling and when I only use the 2x4Gb 2133 Kingston memory everything works fine. I want the 16Gb of RAM though.
