You've made a budget purchase and are facing compatibility problems. It seems the board is working with non-standard DDR3 memory, which might be causing the issues. Checking if the motherboard supports the specific memory type is crucial. Updating the BIOS could help, but you might need a more compatible board or memory. Look for reviews or forums discussing similar setups to find potential solutions.

My H brand X79 supports four RAM slots. The motherboard doesn't handle a 32G with an 8G mix, nor does it accommodate 3x8G. It only works with one 8G slot or two 8G slots together, and it won't accept RAM from different models with the same spec. My 4x32G modules need to be identical to function, though they can vary in revision. All the RAMs listed here are ECC type. My Xeon processor supports speeds up to 1600 MHz, while the 8G modules run at 1333 MHz and the 32G modules at 1800 MHz.
