Gskill SNIPER F3-12800CL9D-8GBSR2 RAM

[xyx2000]

as you can see that the motherboard has 2 slots of two different colors!

Check your manual on how to install ram for dual channel , either you have to place on slot 1 & 3 , 2&4 or slot 1&2 , 3&4

ah well. it's not a good idea to tell me (or anyone for that matter!) what i should have purchased after i have purchased something. 🙂

That was for future in case you have trouble with these rams , if the order was placed today you can contact them and try to cancel

Install both transcend in one color slots either blue or black , and gskill in other slots

So when both transcend are in blue slots , both gskill should be in both black slots , this way all ram will run in dual channel , if you mix up the slots ram will still run but not in dual channel

yey. system seems to be smoother now a lot.

i did not tinker with bios to make the ram work at 1600...

i tried putting all the four chips in. system did not boot.

maybe i would try it again. maybe i would not. 😕

for now i am happy that the system did not blew!

One thing is for sure. I should have upgraded from 4GB long time ago! RAM is ultra cheap. I am considering buying two more chips and make it 16GB next month! Even though I probably have no need to do so. 🙂
