Solution
G41 Chipset motherboards use low-density memory. Most all manufacturers have stopped manufacturing it years ago.

G.SKILL Value Series 8GB (2 x 4GB) 240-Pin DDR3 SDRAM DDR3 1333 (PC3 10600) Desktop Memory Model F3-10600CL9D-8GBNT

Solution
2GB module: total Module layout is 256Mx64
High density - each Chip is 256Mx16
Low density - each Chip is 256x8

Most memory made today is high density which does not work in G41 Chipset motherboards.
