I dont know if i can mix these 2 rams and also add a processor upgrade the processor is a AMD AM3+ FX-6350 Wraith 6 Cores 4.2Ghz Processors and the 2 rams i am going to mix is the ADATA ad3u1600w8g11-b and HyperX Fury HX316C10FB/8
8GB 1G x 64-Bit DDR3-1600
CL10 240-Pin DIMM

Check the supported processor list for your MB (GIGABYTE GA-78LMT-USB3) google to find it. Get to the minimum BIOS level before you swap CPUs.

Here is a compare on those processors: http://cpu.userbenchmark.com/Compare/AMD-FX-6300-vs-AMD-FX-4300/1555vs2879

Most things run the same on a 4 core vs a 6 core, so expect so see about 10% improvement on most things (the single thread increase). You could likely get that with an OC of your existing chip.

Likely mix of memory will work, the specs will drop to the lower of the two. Plug the memory in the slots to enable dual channel, the MB manual will tell you which slots to use. Dual channel worth an extra percent or two (vs the 10+% the new CPU delivers).

so for sure the RAMs will work together right and also i am not a computer master so would you mind helping me with the processor?

1. Goto youtube and look at videos of people putting CPUs into their systems. It's not that hard, but it's not trivial. Make sure you are ready to do this.
2. Make sure that the CPU you want to get is worth the money to you. I would not upgrade that CPU with any of the options you likely have -- too little bang for the buck. Use the compare links I posted.
3. Goto the support site for your MB and check the supported processor list. This is not hard, and DO NOT just buy a processor because someone else said it will work. You need to be sure that the CPU is supported on your MB. Think this is your list, but double check it https://www.gigabyte.com/Ajax/SupportFunction/GetCpuList/?Value=4305&Type=Product
4. No software changes needed for a CPU swap.
5. Make sure the cooler you use has the capacity for the CPU you install. Not a problem if the CPU comes with a cooler -- use the new cooler. If no cooler and your CPU is currently using a stock cooler then you need to buy a new cooler.

re: "..so for sure the RAMs will work together .." AFAIK they will work together. When you mix dimms sometimes (rarely) bad things happen. That's why people buy 2 dimm kits that are matched. I think it is very low risk that the memory will have a problem working together.

This may help: "..an upgrade is typically worthwhile if it's a least a couple of tiers higher. .." http://www.tomshardware.com/reviews/cpu-hierarchy,4312.html
