I currently have a 2x8GB RAM setup with these modules in slots 1 and 3: Corsair Vengeance LPX 16GB (2 x 8GB) DDR4-3200. I double-checked the specifications and added another set in slots 2 and 4, which are TeamGroup Vulcan Z 16GB DDR4-3200. Both sets are supposed to be DDR4 3200MHz, but I'm experiencing some issues with my computer. What could be going wrong?

It seems like you're on the right path, but just having the same speed (3200MHz) isn't always enough. You also want to make sure the RAM modules have similar timings (like CAS latency). If the timings are off, it could cause instability. What exactly is your computer doing to act up? It would help narrow things down.
From what you described, it sounds like there might be a compatibility issue. If you can access BIOS, check to see if both sets of RAM are being recognized correctly. Also, note any error messages when your computer fails to boot. It could provide more clues toward solving the problem!
