Chosen Solution
I have recently purchased a motherboard and CPU. The guy i bought it from, used dual channel 2*4GB RAM in his configuration. When I got the parts, I tried using an 8GB Stick in the first RAM slot. The pc could not start, and it started beeping. Then I moved the RAM into the secon slot on the motherboard and the PC started working perfectly. Then i wanted to put a second RAM into the RAM slot, that was not working, but oddly, the coputer could not start, started beeping, so basically the same stuff that happened when only one stick was inserted. I dont understand what may be the problem here. CPU: Intel Core I3-7100 Motherboard: Gigabyte B250M-D2V RAM: 2400MHZ Crucial RAM, that is on the list of the supported RAMS of the Motherboard. Any help?
Hi @karon , Here’s the motherboard user manual. Go to p.9-10 to see how to install the memory and how to optimize Dual Channel memory by installing two identical memory modules. Here’s the supported memory list for the motherboard from the manufacturer. Although sometimes these aren’t that accurate as they mightn’t cover all the memory options available, but better than nothing.
