I'm going to go over that list here soon and make a choice. I ran into a snafu today with a computer I'm building and I have to fix that problem first.

I think I ordered the wrong kind of memory for a GA-Z170-HD3P Gigabyte motherboard. All I get is five long beeps when I try and start it and that's indicative of a memory problem. I ensured they're seated correctly but I still get the beeps. So it's back to the drawing board.

Thanks for your recommendations though. I'll let you know what I get.

Have you checked Gigabyte Support Beep Codes to see what the beeps mean? There's nothing indicating 5 long beeps in their codes. If it's 5 beeps (assume "short?") then it's a CPU error.

BTW, when you seated the memory did you push down evenly on both sides and get the "click" when you seated them?
