Sounds as if you have a bad ram module or hopefully it wasn't seated fully.

It either doesn't like your system or doesn't like being in bed with
your existing ram.

Same brand is a logical thing to try but still, it most likely doesn;t
like the old stuff. Same things happen with hard drives as well, even
the same brand.
