So I recently bought this Z77 motherboard used for 90$ and the seller let me also test it to see how it works, and everything ran fine with 16GB DDR3. Then when I got home, I installed it into my case, connected everything and went to turn it on. Then I waited like 5 seconds and I thought it was just because of the first boot with new hardware and then I see it shut down. It then automatically rebooted and I still thought it was normal since most motherboards do the same. Then it shut down again. At this point I turned off my power supply and first thing I did was check all the cables and try every RAM stick and slot. Every RAM stick worked which was expected and all slots also worked which I didn't expect. Then I tried putting 2 RAM sticks in dual channel and that also worked (which I am using right now). Then I tried putting the RAM right next to eachother which should never be done aaaaand it went into a boot loop. I also tried clearing CMOS just in case it kept some settings from the seller but that also didn't work. Right now I'm frustrated since I bought too much RAM as it seems and I can't handle the 8gb of RAM I have installed.
EDIT: If this helps, here are my specs:
i7-2600k @4.3GHz w/ be quiet Pure Rock Slim
GIGABYTE XTREME GAMING GTX 1060 6GB
8GB G.SKILL Ripjaws Series (2x4GB, DDR3-1600, have 2 more, but the motherboard doesn't want to work with all memory slots populated)
120GB Intel 535 Series SSD
1.5TB Seagate ST31500341AS
