It's new and tight fitting. 

Had the same thing with my Maximus Hero and new sticks of Trident-Z. 

 

You're good, just push it in, you'll be fine.

So I ordered a "AsRock Rack 1U4LW-X470 1U Rackmount Server Barebone AMD AM4 Ryzen & Ryzen 7nm PGA1331 X470 4 x 3.5" HDD 400W PSU" server from newegg, and Timetec DDR4 16G 2400mghz CL17 1.2V ECC ram from amazon and when trying to install it, it won't sit all the way down in the slot. Is this ram not compatible? If so what ram do I need to get for the server's motherboard?

Push it until it clips.

As long as you align the notch, it would be just fine.

I suggest to push it at the same time at both ends.

I really don't think it fits, it's not going down and is making a sandy grindy noise when I try to push it down and I don't want to push it down any further because I'm afraid I might break it.

RAM it in. ;)

 

No seriously, you just gotta push harder most likely. Some slots can be difficult to work with.

Ok, I trusted you and pushed down a little more on both ends and it clicked in, thank you!
