Recommend me some RAM

[Jordaneer]

So I built a PC, but it motherboard refused to Post, and becuase I don't have another PC to test each part on to find out what was bad or test different parts, but it turned out that my mobo didn't like my RAM becuase even though 1866 mhz is supposedly compatible it refused to post, they put in some 1600 mhz and it worked fine, so reccomend me some RAM that is 1600 mhz or slower

I went through that as well on an 8350. Searching countless forums...I had to set timings manually and make sure command rate(?) is 2T and not 1. And it ran at 1866.

 

IIRC...it was 9,10,9,27 2T for mine. Everything else auto.

idk... I would prefer ECC and going with single stick to be more futureproof and leave room for expansion:

yeah, it wouldn't output anything to a display, it wouldn't even let me into the bios

I was thinking about eventually putting 32 GB in there just for lolz, and was thinking of getting some Blue to put in the black slots on the mobo, and black to  put in the blue slots.

[TymmVonD]

I've used that HyperX ram in a few builds. It's good, but sounds like you have a bad stick. Mine would post and let me into BIOS, but it would only run at 1333. When I would change it, it wouldn't post. Had to reset CMOS and manually set timings.

could be, I bought it from amazon warehouse deals, I tried both sticks by themselves but neither would let my in the bios, the fans would just spin up and then not do anything, I'm planning to just spend the extra 10 bucks to get a new kit of ram.
