Help compatibility check

Help did I buy the wrong ram. Can anyone tell me if this ram will work with the i7 6700? My computer won't post and all I get is the beep codes 1,3,2

what motherboard is this in? did you attempt to re-seat it? which slot is it in, and what(if any) other ram sticks do you have also installed? did you try clearing the cmos? is this bought used, and do you have any way of knowing for sure the stick is good? it is ddr4, and so is the board, and the cpu can handle that speed, so it should work, but there are more variables than that.

 

nvm, @RONOTHAN## is right, didn't see that detail when looking at the modules specs online.

No, it won't. It's registered memory, and that does not function on anything except server motherboards.

Awesome guess I'll chalk that one up to a rookie mistake.

You have to look for DDR4, 288 pin, 1,2v, non ECC, non registered, unbufferd RAM. Some memory brands have a compatibility check on their website like Crucial https://www.crucial.com/products/memory/desktop-dram#
