What memory slots do you have the modules installed in?
Confirm that you have the latest motherboard BIOS - if not download and flash
You'll need to manually set your four primary memory timings if XMP or DDR3 Profile doesn't correctly detect the spd
Easy enough to do that;
Go to Extreme Tweaker menu in the BIOS
Go to DRAM Timing/Driving Configuration
Change DRAM Command Rate from [Auto] to [2T]
and then change the following from [Auto] to the values I note below - leave everything else in there on [Auto]
TCL = 7
TRCD = 8
TRP = 7
TRAS = 24
Bump cpu/nb voltage up to 1.25-1.26v

[QUOTE=godfather5114;27655]I installed the in the blue slots, is it ok?

Blue Slots = GOOD
Stess and Stability testing per mrcmtl's recommendations.
Run Memtest 86+ version 4.10 for eight hours. Then run the other blended stress tests mentioned by mrcmtl.
Regarding the blended stress tests (i.e. Prime95, Orthos, OCCT) you only need to run one or two of those - you don't necessarily need to run all three (and definitely not at the same time )
I personally use;
Memtest = 8 hours
Prime95 = 8 hours
OCCT = 4 hours
Then frag with some hard core gamingMSI Big Bang xPower x58
