Ok
I just set dram voltage to 2.1

Took out the old ram

Put in the new ram

Still didnt boot

Maybe the bios reset the ram voltage

Ok so i put the old ram back in

Set the DRAM Voltage to 2.10v

I saved the settings
Exited the bios

Shut down the pc
Took out the old ram
Put in the new ram

And it still didnt boot
So i put back in the old ram and it worked again
Any ideas guys?

I'd say it's time to RMA.

Try other slots, but if that doesn't pan out, I am going to say that stick is dead.

It helps when the RAM is a different rated voltage.

As for your RAM, it's most likely bad. OCZ has great RMA support though.

How does it help?

When you put new ram in, you need the new sticks to be set at the voltage/timings they need. Resetting the CMOS is just going to set the voltage back to default at or around 1.8v, which sometimes is not enough to get the system to boot.

Especially with people who don't remember all of their OC settings, boot settings, integrated peripheral settings....why would you recommend a CMOS clear? It's going to make a simple ram swap into a fox hunt, trying to get everything back to where it was.

I just tried putting the OCZ ram in while the system was on
And it was recognized fine by CPUID and the bios
But as soon as i rebooted it didnt boot again
