Hi everyone, I recently decided to purchase new ram sticks as my old ram sticks only had so much potential. I tried finding compatible ram to my mother board and ended up purchasing a
G.Skill Ripjaws X Series 16 GB (2 x 8 GB) 240-Pin DDR3 SDRAM Desktop Memory (1600 MHz, PC3 12800) F3-12800CL10D-16GBXL
Set. Upon it arriving I removed my old sticks and placed my new sticks into the yellow slots of my motherboard. After booting I was given a no memory failure boot loop. I decided to reseat them several times with no changes until I had read to clear the CMOS. After clearing the CMOS the boot loops had stopped but the DRAM led had light up (Not flashing anymore) and had no video. I hit the MEMok button on my motherboard in which it had shut off then proceeded to boot while flashing the DRAM light. Didnt touch my gpu or cpu and all was working fine minutes before I decided to change my RAM, possibly thinking I'm just not seating them correctly but not sure.
My motherboard is the ASUS Z87-a. Thank you
