Hi guys,
I am replacing my old computer and building a new one.
Specs follow
CPU Intel i7 3470
MB Intel DH67CLB3
RAM Patriot 8GB DDR3-1333 ( http://www.steg-electronics.ch/it/article/patriot-memory-ddr3-1333mhz-8gb-727624.aspx )
HD Intel 510 Series 120GB SSD
After assembling the components, when trying to boot, I get three short beeps, a 3 seconds pause, then other three beeps.
The sequence keeps repeating and the pc doesn't boot. Looking at the mobo manual ( http://downloadmirror.intel.com/19488/eng/DH67CL_ProductGuide02_English.pdf ) I found out the this beep sequence indicates a memory error.
RAM speed and voltage are correct, spd is supported by this RAM and I placed the RAM piece in the correct slot.
Do you guys know if there is an incompatibility of some other kind that I am missing?
Could it be that this motherboard requires me to have two RAM pieces instead of a single one due to dual channel memory?
Otherwise I will go to the store and ask them to replace the RAM piece I bought.
Thanks in advance for your time!
