Hoping someone could kindly assist with any experience or knowledge that might help me.

I have been running my PC with 2 sticks of 8Gb Ram and purchased 2 more.

I can't get my system to boot for love nor money with 4 dimms.

I have a 10700k
Nzxt cooler
Msi Z490 Tomahawk Motherboard
750 Corsair Gold PSU
The Ram is 8-Pac Team Group Edition 16Gb (2x8gb) 3600Mhz (I have two packs)s

With two sticks I can get cl16 4000mhz with tight sub timings. It works great.

I add two additional sticks and cannot boot at stock settings. I get the CPU error light and nothing else on the Mother board.

I have tried re seating the CPU to ensure the sticks are in firmly.
I have tried re-setting the CMOS.
I have tried a number of times and have never managed to get 4 dimms to boot but always end up with 2 dimms booting.

Any ideas would be greatly appreciated!!
