Well the good thing is that you have integrated graphics, so that we can diagnose it. Did you try removing all the components except RAM, motherboard, Processor and PSU wires as I advised?

you probably mixed two ram kits together, results can vary if you do that, and you lost the probability roll

Can you post all your system specs

but most importantly

what ram did you have before the upgrade?
What ram have you added
We need type, speed, brand etc

for reference:

Something is shorting in your PC.
Disconnect all the components except the CPU, motherboard, RAM, PSU.

Unplug every single wire except the 24 Pin and the CPU power connector.

If it does not shut down, then the problem is with a component that you disconnected.

Please list all your system specs.
