I have :-
MSI H67MA-E35 (B3) MATX Board
Core i5 2400 CPU
2x 2Gb DDR3 1600 Ram 1.5v
600W PSU
My mate has just upgraded to faster memory and I got these on the cheap, I know for a fact they work fine.
The memory I got off him is 2x 8Gb DDR3 1600 1.5v.
On MSI website it says it supports up to 16Gb in 2x 8Gb module configuration. I have upgraded to the latest BIOS but when I put the ram in my PC just starts up, doesnt post and shuts down again and just does it in a loop.
I've tried resetting the bios, putting each stick in on its own and both in at same time, but nothing I do works.
I know my CPU only supports max 1333 ram but its been running 1600mhz ram downclocked fine.
Is there something I'm doing wrong?
