Hello,

 

I curently own a PC with 4 GB of DDR3 1333 dual channel placed on a ASUS P5G43T-M Pro motherboard.

The stiks work fine at 1066 MHz.

I bought 8 GB of DDR3 1333 dual channel to upgrade the PC but after i plug the RAM in it does not POST.

I tried putting one stick at a time without any luck.

The RAM i bought works fine, i checked it on another sistem.

 

Thank you!

You didn't really ask a question in the main post but I am going to assume you want us to fix it.

 

Do you have a 64 bit or 32 bit Processor?

If the CAS latency timings are different on your new sticks from your old your gonna have a bad time, sometimes works sometimes doesn't, I had the same nightmare with my ram recently, buying ram at different times always has the possibility to create a headache and even more so if your CAS timings are different, you can manually set them in bios but I still didn't have any luck doing that!
