Hey,

I got the Asus Maximus VIII Gene mb and my question is that will it work with CMK16GX4M2A2400C14 Corsair memory : https://www.multitronic.fi/fi/products/639243/corsair-ddr4-2400mhz-16gb-2-x-288-dimm-unbuffered-14-1...
or will it need a different memory?
And if so would this one work: https://www.multitronic.fi/fi/products/1245504/corsair-ddr4-2800mhz-4x4gb-288-dimm-unbuffered-16-18-...

Thanks for help already :). I am not so good with computers and cant get my own to boot.

Hello and welcome to ROG forums.
Post your computer specs please.

Intel i7-6700k
Asus Maximus VIII Gene
Samsung 850 Evo 250GB
Cooler Master Nepton 120XL
EVGA GeForce GTX 970 SSC ACX 2.0+, 4GB GDDR5
EVGA 750W SuperNOVA 750 G2
CORSAIR DDR4 2400MHz 16GB 2 x 288 DIMM Unbuffered 14-16-16-31 Vengeance LPX Black Heat spreader 1.20V [CMK16GX4M2A2400C14]

It gives code 55. and without memory it gives code 53.

Might have found the problem. The standoffs where upside down. Hopefully i did not damage the board.

Hello vilidaking

Try with one stick in all four slots and see if you can get it to boot.
