Hi, your LC Power Fan might be interfering with the RAM installation. Since you're unsure about PCs and need a simple solution, you could try removing the fan and checking if the RAM slots work properly. If they do, reattach the fan and see if the issue persists. For future reference, your new RAM should fit into standard 16GB slots on most systems.

Sure, but I have to break down the previous model since the RAM rates vary.

Yes, you can disable RAM in BIOS settings. Check your motherboard manual for specific instructions.

You could simply take out the cooler. Then install the RAM in slots 2 and 4, provided it's dual-channel. If it's a single stick, place it in a more distant dimmer.

Think like Linus—swap the old tools for a grinder or Dremel. Or splurge on a new Noctua cooler for $40 that’ll handle better than that dusty old unit. Also, I ran into a radiator problem that needed fixing, sad times.

Shut down your PC while handling its components. When removing the cooler, remember to apply thermal paste as well.
