So recently I decided to get new RAM because the old one is getting outdated and hell it is always good to have a lot of Ram.

Fast forward to today when it arrived. So being exited about it I immediately opened my case and and put it in. When nothing happens. It freezes at BIOS loading and it won't budge. Like it loads the CPU info and it stats, next is stars to write out the memory info but but it stops at Dual-channel memory and that is the end. I tried it a few times I always get the same result. So thinking it may need time, I leave it  running for like 20 minutes and nothing happens.

I tried using only one DIMM. So it gets through the initial loading and the Windows start to load and just as the loading is done it blue screens. I tried switching the DIMMs and switched the slots but nothing helps. I tried to mess around in BIOS setting still nothing. I search online nothing to helpful there. I also tried the DIMMs in my friends Pc and they worked without a problem. After switching back to my old Ram it had no problem.
P.S. I checked if it was all compatible, the Ram, Cpu and Mother-board, and it seam it was. 
 
I was hopping you guys can help me.

your trying to use ram with different CAS timings?

just to clarify with you, you are trying to run 2 dimms one at 1333MHz 9-9-9-24 and the other at 1333MHz 9-9-9-27 that wont work together like that, you can underclock them to match up the timings of the 9-9-9-27 kit and you should be fine

I dont know any solution, Everything Should be compatible.

It is not much of a upgrade exept for the capacity, But you know what you need to im not going to be much bothered by that since that CPU wont gain much after 1333Mhz

It is Not always good with alot of ram, It is not good to go with over 8 gb on a gaming system right now since more aint needed yet.

I dont know if I fully understand what you are saying but all of the Ram Dimms are working in a dual channel configuration. By that I mean the old ram is in dula channel(there are 2 dims), and the new ram is working in dual channel(there are 2 dims).

You need to get all your RAM to run at the same frequency and timings. Either they ALL have to be 9-9-9-24 (Corsair RAM's timings), or whatever the labelled timings are for the Kingston RAM.

You can't have some running at 1333MHz 9-9-9-24, and some other ones running at 1333MHz 9-9-9-27.
