Check the compatibility list of your motherboard for the Ram and that the Ram has the the mentioned typ and specification. Check the manual and try a different slot, because maybe it requires to use a specific one.

I hope you didn't buy this ram on ebay. 90% of them on there are garbage, and will possibly destroy your mobo.

Try to see if it boots up with so many sticks, AKA, try out diffrent sticks of ram in diffrent configuations.

SO see if it boots up with 1 stick or 2 sticks as you may have bad ram.

Take some picture of how they are seated, how many GB of RAM are you suppose to have then?
