Lower the speed in BIOS

If you have 4 slots, try setting them in A0 and A1 (not A and B). Using different model RAM with each other always has a chance of incompatibility, just have to try your luck.

- Maybe either stick of RAM may have issue.

You can run Memtest to check.

- Maybe different brand of RAM not compatible with each other.
Maybe you have to find another Crucial to pair.
