New ram freezing PC need help fixing

MosseN

So i just got some tridentz 32 gig sticks and i installed them but they seem to be freezing my entire pc randomly. it will freeze at launch or will randomly freeze while doing something theres nothing i can do but restart my pc. Its very much like having a faulty or corrupted hard drive. i put the old sticks back in so i can use my pc till i find a fix but i cant seem to find any solutions any where. Also too not i thought my sata cable for my ssd was the problem as it said disk read error on startup but now that my old ram is back in everything is acting normal.

 

Heres my specs

RTX 2080

i7 6700k

Old Ram: Rip jaws 4 2x8 gig kit i ran at 2133 mhz

New Ram (thats causing freezing) : Tridentz 2x16 gig kit 3600 mhz

Mobo: msi z170a krait gaming

 

Note i have updated bios too latest and i have tried down clocking my ram speeds still to no avail on a fix.

 

EDIT: I also ran a memtest for 12 loops with no errors
