So I have tried to boot my computer and everything but it wont boot up.... I have made two posts about it but still not much help...

 

@PerfectTemplar said this 

"The ram is 1866Mhz and your board only supports 1600Mhz max. If you could get into your motherboard bios and underclock the ram it might work? Idk I have never done it before. However you might need to replace the RAM with 1600Mhz, the performance will be the same."

 

But I am not a very tech person however so I dont know what to do.... Some people say my ram will underclock itself but other wise than the ram i dont know what could be causing it.

 

Please help it has been on my table for around 3 days because i dont know what to do...

 

Just another post from a non tech kind of person

Do you get past POST? Any beeps or anything during bootup? Do the fans spin, and does it shut down, then retry the boot on its own?

 

Also, have you tried booting with only one stick of RAM and using the onboard GPU, rather than the graphics card?

Highest supported memory on anything is 1600 MHz, 1833 is the overclocked value, highly doubt that would cause the problem. Start by doing what lutewan said, remove as much components as you can for the system to work, if it does, start adding parts back to see what is causing problems.

I have done that I took out everything and tested each ram still nothing... The cpu fan spins a little then stops

Is the 8 pin cpu power connected? If it doesn't boot up with either ram sticks, that leaves cpu or motherboard to be defective, most likely motherboard.

Would you mind explaining what RMA is... sorry im not a very tech person

Totally understand, RMA stands for return merchandise authorization. Basically it's just a fancy term for returning something under warranty for a replacement or refund if you want to get a different motherboard.

Are you sure you plugged in the 8pin power not PCI-e power cable?
