I installed an identical stick of 8 gig memory into the slot to total 16 gigs, when it boots, it boots into a power loop (as in it powers on, then shuts off without reaching any screen, over and over until I hold power). I tested both sticks in the slot that works, and both sticks are recognized. Is there a bios option I'm unaware of? Could the slot be damaged? Is there not enough power? Any help would be appreciated! I haven't run into this issues in a build before. 😞
Specs:
i7-4770s
GTX 1060 Turbo 6gb
1 TB HDD
180w + 230w power bricks

I got the hyperx set above from amazon and no issues, i wanted to make sure i got no probs by using different ram, but you said urs are identical. Can you enter the bios? If so pls reset to default, also clear cmos....good luck.
If you can return the ram, sell the other and get the hyperx ones...
Another thing....to add ram you woukd have to remove the cpu heatsink....did you? Check that its screwed back properly...
Sorry for stating the obvious but at desperate time we tend to miss these things...

I did remove the heatsink when installing, and when I screwed it back, I did so from screw to diagonal screw, until the screws were tight. I already tried resetting bios and cmos. It looks like I'll be sending it back, anyway, I appreciate the help my dude! I'll be ordering the Hyper X set and I'll update you when they arrive.
