glad ya got it working. Memory goes in A2 & B2 on Z97 for 2 dimm config btw. that way you are getting dual channel.

[@DromaticGnome]

Yep - was just looking and playing around for functionality at first. Different RAM ended up going in this system - in both channels.

I too do that with the 40 some computers I have . Enjoy ...

Having only two sticks of ram ,you have both sticks in side by side you are running them in single channel . Move the one nearest the CPU one slot closer to the CPU , so there is a open slot between them to get the best performance ...

Those ventilation slots on the side of the case could accommodate fans as well, but the top one would be block by the cpu cooler.

For $40, you purchased many very good parts! The only thing that would do, personally, is get rid of the i5 4th gen. CPU and DDR3 board, then replace them with something more current.

[@andrewjenery1783]

Not bad for $40, but odd that the CPU fan wasn't working off the usual connector. Glad you got it all working in the end though after replacing the memory mods.

4th gen intel with NVME Mobo Slot. Thats a good one.

[@TheRealHeavyG]

Devil's Canyon Core-i5! That was a pretty good CPU.

[@amdintelxsniperx]

that ram is only in single channel . put ram in matched colored slots
