Hey guys i am trying to run 4x4gb so 16gb total ram in my gaming pc.

Here is the ram: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Prod [...] 6820145328

But i get a problem. I do not know alot about OCing except ocing my cpu.

When i put all four sticks in my motherboard and when i hit the power button the computer will start up and the fans will all spin and then 5 seconds later it will shut off. Then it will do it again.

Here is my motherboard:http://www.msi.com/product/mb/P67A-G45--B3-.html

When i run 1 stick in it it runs fine. I want to run 16gb total for max gaming experience.

Please try and help me =D.

Thanks,
Drithric

Do you test it one by one, or only one ram can working.
If all ram is good condition try :
- clerar CMOS or
- reseat cpu and re assembly anything conection
- sure your PSU in good condition

My PSU is fine brand new 850 watt.
The ram is all good also.

Will try clearing my cmos and reply back.

Looks like the memory holders on my mobo are defective i tried putting a stick in another slot and wouldnt work either. Only the first slot works. Can someone link a great motherboard that is comaptible with my cpu and ram?

Cpu is a intel i5 2500k 3.3ghz.

Thanks
