On the P8Z77-V LX mobo.

Sometimes it won't load at all, if i use 1 ram stick it does boot, but when i restart it then it goes to black screen and nothing happens.
With 2 sticks it doesn't load at all and sometimes gets stuck like this:

 Spoiler:
 


I have tested with 2 different modules of 2x 4gb and it happens on both.

Would it be the ram not being compatible or is the mobo broken?


(it worked before untill the SSD crashed and he had to replace it, after that this problem came)

Try re-flashing it. And see if it exhibits the same behavior at default settings.

Just got message back from RMA, they claim a socket pin was bend...

This is fucking odd, the PC ran before flawless, untill the SSD crashed. The CPU was NEVER been taken out after placing it and now they claim that a pin there is bend?!

Plus if you look at socket 1155:

Then how the fuck can you bend a pin there?!

I once returned a broken cpu tp the store and they refused to refund me cos they said "we could see that You tried to overclock it" wtf? Very Happy I just took it from the package it came from and placed it on the motherboard but it never started lol Razz
Anyway, I went further with it as I filed a complain to the swedish consumer agency and I won since their "expert" confirmed that there was no way in hell they could claim that it had been overclocked by just looking at a broken cpu.


shitloads of new stuff in my pc. Cant keep track of it all.

Did you send the mobo without the black protection layer which covers socket? Something loose in the package would damage the pins.
