About 6 months ago I build a pc for my cousin its a really low end build with a Pentium G4400 a Gigabyte H110M-H motherboard and a Graphics card older than me a GT 8400 GS and some Kingston 2400 hz ram

 

The problem here is that he wants to do some medium lite gaming and he says he wants me to put it in double channel he bought 4 sticks but all of them gave the same problem the system is beeping and shutting down and going back on. The system is only functioning with single channel ram.

 

So can you guys help me? I posted this yesterday also and got no help

Check the spec of the CPU it only supports DDR4-1866/2133, DDR3L-1333/1600 @ 1.35V

clear CMOS after changing memory configuration. No amount of RAM will help the poor graphics card (which is far from good even when new) though, I hope he only aims to play games from the time of the graphics card (2007)

Memory will downclock itself automatically when the lowest common supported frequency is lower than what the sticks are rated for, it is not a problem.
