    MBst / memory compatible?

    Do these two work together or no. I seem to be having a problem getting this new system build to turn on.

    Definitely does work together. Are you having trouble getting to BIOS (i.e. no beeps when powered on) or having trouble getting past it and into Windows? If you just can't get into windows, go into your BIOS and set your ram voltage to 1.65v so that it actually can hit it's 2000MHz rating. That should not make your system not boot though. Make sure you have your speaker connected into your Front Panel spot on your motherboard and listen to the beeps when you power on and then look up in the motherboard manual as to what is wrong.

    Oh kay lol, i didnt have speakers set up, let me grab some headphones or something, I cant get bios or anything to pop up. Do I need a old plug in keyboard to start things off, cause all I have are usb kb/mouse.

    I didn't hear any beeps at all. BIOS wont come up when I hold the delete key. DRAM light is on could be bad memory?

    I don't mean literal speakers as in headphones/desk speakers. Your board comes with a little 4 pin speaker that beeps. Looks like this:

    You plug it into the front panel section of your motherboard. If your PC won't even boot to BIOS, then it will most definitely tell you what is wrong by a series of beeps, long and short. Most boards are different as to what the codes mean, but it's always listed in the manual.

    Oh I don't think the case has speakers. Antec 900. I think sleep is making me stupid.

    I'm such an idiot. It wasn't booting because motherboard didn't have enough power cause I didn't put the 8 pin connector that was above CPU. Fucking bad place for that connector wiith power supply been at bottom of case. Problem fixed.

    It does not have a case speaker. I'm sure you can buy one though aftermarket and glue it to the frame/panels inside if you really want one though.

    Well, you'll never make that mistake again, and at least it wasn't something serious lol.
