So i was so excited to get my ram in, after the fiasco with the previous bit of ram that is. long story short the corsair hyperX fury's i had, all 4 of them were the same, identical 8GB sticks, from 2 packs of 16GB. i just could not get them to work with my mobo/cpu for anything. found out the hard way that one of the 4 was DOA from newegg, so i said to hell with it, and went online to lookup the QVL for my motherboard, and find a set of 32GB ram that will work.
my Ripjaw X (model: F3-1866C9Q-32GXM) came in this afternoon, and i proceeded to POST a single stick at a time, to make sure that none were bad, and they all posted fine through MemOK, showed up in bios, etc.
Installed all 4, went into bios, bios is showing i only have 16GB or ram, and that its only clocked at 1333MHz. language redacted
Set OC tweaker thing memory frequency to 1866 manually, and POST fails, memory beep code.

Relevant hardware:
SaberTooth 990FX R2.0
AMD FX-9370 @ 4.4GHz
4x ripjaw x F3-1866C9Q-32GXM 1866 DDR3 ram
what am i doing wrong here? how do i get my ram to work properly? is it a BIOS setting? IOMMU? Is the moon really made of cheese? What does the turtle say?
I'll go ahead and preclude some questions I've seen frequently.
Yes, i absolutely must have 32 GB of ram, frankly i run out too often on 16GB of ram.
If needs must, i will simply order whatever i need to get this working, I'm honestly at the point where I'm about to say screw it, and buy a new motherboard, CPU, and RAM, and return the parts that didn't work.
