Building a new system.
Gskill F3-15000CL9D-4GBRH appears to not be compatible with BIOSTAR T5 XE CFX-SLI motherboard and i5-750 CPU. Motherboard states it supports the following DDR3 memory standards: DDR3 800/1066/1333/1600(OC)/1866(OC)/2000(OC). On boot, motherboard self checks do not complete and LED lights state the there is a problem with the memory. Tried using just one stick and in various slots with no progress being made.
To verify it was not other components, I have tested with different graphics cards, hard drive and power supply.
I have purchased some Corsair XMS3 DDR3 1600 (sadly as I prefer G-skill but I need to get up and running and it is the only decent stuff local) so I should be able to test tonight if I get a different result.
