RAM Channels Causing Boot Loop

[RadiatingLight]

After changing my CPU Heatsink from the intel stock to a Hyper 212 EVO, My PC Wont boot with the ram i was using before.

My motherboard has 2 Gray slots, and 2 Black Slots. 2 Identical confirmed working sticks of ram wont run in the same color/channel. this is a problem for me, because i have 3 sticks of Balistex 8GB, and want to run them all simultaneously. In my troubleshooting, i removed the CMOS battery, reseting my BIOS. how do i get all ram to work?

 

System:

Intel Core I7 4770K (Not Overclocked)

Geforce GTX 770 (Not Overclocked)

Have you tried running just one stick of RAM at a time? Does your cooler interfere with the RAM at all? Did you put the sticks in the same configuration as before (as in, are they in the same slots as before)?

I have tried putting only one stick of ram in, and it works perfectly. currently i am running 2 sticks of ram, in different colors because putting them in the same color will initiate the boot loop.

my CPU cooler doesn't interfere with my ram, and i have tried basically every combination, including the same combination as they were in before. i didn't even touch the RAM during the heat sink change, and only moved them when troubleshooting.
