Aargh. At least it ruled that out. Did MSI say anything yet re: RAM compatibility?

I have tried HDMI and the Display port.

I apologise for the patronising question: you do mean the HDMI and the three DP ports on the graphics card itself here, right? Not the ones on the motherboard?

Latest info from MSI.

“We are able to duplicate the no boot problem when install 4 DDR at the same time. But it might take some time for us to add the solution into beta BIOS”

i have to sat they are very responsive and helpful so far.

Make me wonder, what memory chips do those Corsair sticks have, that MSI have never seen before?

Lol, had the same conversation with my daughter. It’s her system i am building for her university work. corsair specifically told me the kit is fully compatible. My curiosity is certainly up. But i will say MSI has been really responsive.

Update on this finally. Ended up being the CPU. Intel verified and has shipped a new one already. Months of testing. So tired of working on this but will be happy to have it finished
