Hi there.

So I've installed additional 8GB RAM(2x4) and these are different from the ones that I already had.

I knew about the possible incompatibility but still decided to that.
The problem is I dont have any problems while I'm actually using my PC for whatever reason: gaming, coding, movies, etc.
I get BSOD only in a one case - when I'm AFK, literally when I went off of PC for like 5-10 mins to the moment I'll return it's gonna be 100% bsod.

So it actually happens when there is no input on it.

My motherboard is:
-Asus H97-Pro.
-Was already installed Hynix org 2x4GB
-Added Noname 2x4GB

What are the possible solutions? Thanks in advance.

have you run a test on all the RAM?
memtest86 is the go to test, let it go for three passes or overnight, of beyond three passes with no errors you should be good.
if you get errors test each stick individually and see if you can isolate the bad stick
what are the timings of the RAM? they should match/be close to each other. CPUz can tell you the timings

UPD.
Actually I've opened the CPU-Z, here's the info:

From what I see there is no difference.
