I'm using Gigabyte GA-H77M-D3H motherboard. It beep once many times when using computer. Is it RAM problem? I'm using Kingston KVR1600 4GB DDR2 desktop RAM. Is it time to change RAM?

Alright remove the memory from the motherboard and power it on.
You should hear one small beep, indicating no memory, that tells us the mobo is working fine.
Now move the memory into slot 1, power back on the machine, tell me what beep codes you get.
Two quick beeps is the bios system booting up which is normal, memory failure is 10 long ones.
We're hoping not to hear that in any slot, if so time for new memory or a new computer with ddr3.

Actually the problem had been happening for the past few months. I reseated and changed the RAM position and the problem was gone. After about one month, it was back again.

I suggest you give that a close look before you follow my instructions least that way you'll understand how to trouble shoot it.
