I often get mixed up about compatible sizes. The RAM you linked is 288-pin DDR4 SDRAM, while your current setup uses an 8GB stick. You're planning to add another 16GB of the same type, but it's a different amount. Make sure the total capacity matches what your system supports.

It usually functions well, though stability could feel unusual. Would you like 24GB to be precise?

Speed and timing can vary based on your motherboard. It might run in single-channel mode or a mix of single and dual channels. Usually, performance is reduced compared to RAM that works in full dual-channel mode.

they'll operate on dual channel with just 16 gigabytes. The 8-gig stick and 8 gig of the 16-gig stick will function separately. The remaining 8 gig will run on single channel, which means exceeding 16 gigabytes could potentially reduce performance.
