Bought a new HyperX Fury 4GB 2666mhz installed it into my computer and it won't work :((( I have an existing HyperX Fury 4gb 2400mhz and it works. Tried the 2666mhz into a different computer and it boots. Is my motherboard not compatible with it?

 

just black screen with no display on it. Would really appreciate if someone can help me with this. :(

MOBO: ASUS PRIME A320M-K
CPU: AMD A10-9700
OLD RAM (Functioning): HyperX Fury DDR4 4gb 2400mhz

NEW RAM (Not Functioning on mobo but functions on Aorus b450 pro): HyperX Fury DDR4 4gb 2666mhz

It is probably the difference in the speeds of the ram. It is general policy to get ram of the same speed.

I build computers and networks. Fibre Optic is my only dream imaginable. 

Studying for my CompTIA A+ and my CCNA, if you have any tips, let me know please!

 

Main PC: i5 8400, Saphire RX 570 4GB, ASUS TUF Z370 PLUS Gaming, 32GB 3200MHz Patriot Viper RAM, 256GB Kingston SSD, 2TB Seagate Barracuda HDD, 550W Evga PSU.

 

Home Server: 2x Xeon e5410, 64GB DDR2 ECC

Return the RAM. Get the exact same speed (2400mhz) that your PC currently has. Never pair two sticks of RAM with different speeds.

The deep blue sky is infinitely high and crystal clear.
