Attempting to increase memory capacity by overclocking.
Attempting to increase memory capacity by overclocking.
Hello, I'm attempting to increase my computer's performance by adding more RAM, but I'm facing issues with my monitor failing to turn on after a restart. Despite hearing Windows start up, I can't get the system to boot properly. My current setup includes one dual-channel Mushkin Enhanced 2x 2GB DDR3 at 1333MHz. When I install RAM without altering BIOS settings, it behaves similarly. I have Windows 7 Ultimate 64-bit and a Core2 Quad CPU running at 2.66GHz. My current RAM is 4GB Mushkin Dual Channel at 1333MHz. Please help me resolve this.
Different memory configurations at the same frequency can affect CAS latency patterns. If the settings are too aggressive for one type, it may not function properly. DDR3 timing examples often resemble 9-9-9-27 or similar sequences, while faster chips tend to use slower timings such as 11-11-11-29. Only a limited number of LGA775 motherboards support 1600 memory due to the scarcity of 1600FSB CPUs. You can check Crucial.com for information on the supported speeds of your motherboard.
ram bought separately isn't always ensured to function properly together, regardless of adjustments. That's why they offer warranty kits.
Does the pairing work at all, even without overclocking?

It doesn't work with the HyperX ram in; I changed the settings before and it reported 1600 MHz. After restarting, the monitor returned to power-saving mode. This monitor (LG Flatron L1710S) isn't the best, could it be the issue with the monitor itself?
