So, you are WAY back on BIOS version updates. You do not need to do each of them to get up to date, you simply need to update to the latest version, which is F37d and this might be relatively important because there are clear indications of stability issues with graphics and USB 2.0 devices on some of the listed BIOS update versions.
Also, seems if that model is correct that you have TWO different memory modules that did not come together in one kit, making up your 16GB? Is that correct? You bought two separate DIMMs of the same model rather than one kit that came with two matched DIMMs in it?
That's a problem, or can be in some cases. So is the fact that the G.Skill website says that your DIMMs are not compatible with that motherboard based on the memory kit model and board model using the G.Skill memory configurator.

That doesn't mean they
can't work, but a lot of times it does mean it's going to take some work to get them to work properly, and other times it means they simply won't every work properly at all resulting in anything from "works but has problems" to "doesn't even POST".
I'd do the BIOS update first, then reset the BIOS after you update, and then see how it does. After updating, it's advisable to go through the process below.
BIOS Hard Reset procedure
Power off the unit, switch the PSU off and unplug the PSU cord from either the wall or the power supply.
Remove the motherboard CMOS battery for about three to five minutes. In some cases it may be necessary to remove the graphics card to access the CMOS battery.
During that five minutes while the CMOS battery is out of the motherboard, press the power button on the case, continuously, for 15-30 seconds, in order to deplete any residual charge that might be present in the CMOS circuit. After the five minutes is up, reinstall the CMOS battery making sure to insert it with the correct side up just as it came out.
If you had to remove the graphics card you can now reinstall it, but remember to reconnect your power cables if there were any attached to it as well as your display cable.
Now, plug the power supply cable back in, switch the PSU back on and power up the system. It should display the POST screen and the options to enter CMOS/BIOS setup. Enter the bios setup program and reconfigure the boot settings for either the Windows boot manager or for legacy systems, the drive your OS is installed on if necessary.
Save settings and exit. If the system will POST and boot then you can move forward from there including going back into the bios and configuring any other custom settings you may need to configure such as Memory XMP, A-XMP or D.O.C.P profile settings, custom fan profile settings or other specific settings you may have previously had configured that were wiped out by resetting the CMOS.
In some cases it may be necessary when you go into the BIOS after a reset, to load the Optimal default or Default values and then save settings, to actually get the BIOS to fully reset and force recreation of the hardware tables.
