Does my PC support this RAM?

Go to solution Solved by FRD,

I think the HyperX ram you chose doesn't work.

You need DDR3 RAM with 1600mhz, not 1866mhz like in your example.

Also the description says it needs CAS latency 11, they HyperX is 10. I'm not sure though, maybe someone can correct me on this.

What should be correct is that you chose a dual kit.

A random recommended kit, even though there are tons of options available, also different depending on locations and DDR3 isn't that common as before:

Yeah, you were right. I actually got to test the RAM and the machine gave a one "BEEP" sound, indicating there was a memory issue. Thanks for the recomendation and the informative answer!
