first off, sorry if my grammar is a little bit off
so, a few months ago i bought 8 gigs of ram(TeamGroup Vulcan Red 8GB DDR3 2400MHz CL11 Dual Channel Kit) so that i my system could handle some heavyer apps
the first few months nothing happend,then after a while the pc began crashing,displaying "whea uncorectable error" (i have windows 10 installed)
i wanted to know if there are any compatibility issues
specs are:

RAM:Corsair XMS3 4GB DDR3 1600MHz CL9 Dual Channel and TeamGroup Vulcan Red 8GB DDR3 2400MHz CL11 Dual Channel Kit(having them run in 1866 mhz and i adjusted the latency and voltage)
STORAGE:Kingston HyperX Savage 240GB + 2 HDDs: A 160 gb samsung and a 80 gb wd caviar

The frequency between the rams are not the same. If you upgrade your RAM, make sure you get RAM that have the same frequency. You should be fine with the 8GB of ram you got recently, you probably don't need more then 8. If you do want more, get RAM that is same as your TeamGroup frequency which is 2400Mhz.
 
AMD FX CPUs support 1866MHz memory with one DIMM per channel and 1600MHZ with two DIMMs per channel. Higher frequencies require overclocking the system. The ASRock 980DE3/U3S3 is a dual channel motherboard.

You should use a single kit of memory. Combining multiple kits or singles can cause the system to be unable to operate at rated specifications.
