Hello everyone,
My situation seems to be a bit complicated but maybe I'll have some luck here. Anyways, today I installed my thermaltake 3.0 water cooler onto my pc. After I turned it on for the first time, my PC would stay on for about 10 seconds and reboot. I made sure everything was plugged in properly, and that the CPU cooler was directly on top of the CPU. So after about the 10th reboot, I pulled out a stick of my Ripjaws 8gb DDR4 ram, and everything went back to normal. Once again, I turned everything off, put the RAM stick back in, and it started to reboot over and over. Everything worked fine with my old CPU cooler which was a Coolmaster 212. I'm currently unsure of what the problem can be. I tried clearing CMOS, and even messed with the voltage in the BIOs. At one point though, I was able to have both 8gb sticks in, but my pc was only reading one. Any suggestions on what I should do?
Specs:
I5 6600k 3.5ghz
Gigabyte GA 170xp SLI mobo
NVIDIA gtx 1060 3gb
Ripjaws 8gb DDR4 (x2)
Corsair 850w power supply
