i have a utillity came with the motherboard that allows you to boot straight to bios , got that sorted out

the memory is exact same spec and make

corsair ddr4 vengeance 2400mhz i made sure i bought the two x8 gig sticks exact same ,you are correct about slot colour slot 1 and 3 are grey 2 and 4 are black ,

so i put the 8’s in slot 1 and 3 and where for the 4gig ? 2 or 4 ?

 

also why is my monitor not waking up until windows loads to login screen ? tv wakes up on boot screen via hdmi , monitor via display port does not.

I wouldnt bother using two sets of ram, just use one pair, unless they are matched (as they are two different sizes they wont be) ur PC will only run as fast as the slowest ram, I reckon the 4gb would cause a slow-down.

In the bios, is the graphics card set as the main device ? eg PCI not hdmi. (I have 3 PCI slots, so PCI E 1 is my boot device)

Memory should be put into the slot closest to the CPU (in pairs or triples in my case)  so 1a and 1b would be my choice (if 1 is the closest) mine is 1,3,5 not 2,4,6
