I recently built myself a budget pc (that was still a massive upgrade over my old dinosaur) and installed this memory:

However, I saw an ad for this memory and id like to fill up my Mobo's slots to get 16GB.

It's cheaper, and with the promo code is only $30.
It's the same brand and product line, however the frequency is different. Would there be any problems installing them together? (The existing memory is in the appropriate dual channel slots)

(This PC is used primarily for gaming)

Hello Slayer Jesse. I would very much like to help you but without knowing what your CPU or MOBO is, it is hard to say if those would be compatible. For compatibility you should check both your CPU and MOBO specifications because those are the parts concerning and envolving the RAM performance and compatibility. I'm afraid I can't be much more helpful other than saying those RAM sticks you linked are very good at a low price and you won't need more frequency or memory in your RAM if you are planning on gaming.

Then yes, it is compatible. Your motherboard has 4 slots that support that speed and up to a total of 32GB RAM. So does your processor support the RAM speed and the voltage is just the cherry on the top of the cake. You are getting 8GB (2x4) of DDR3 1600 MHz RAM which seems to fit perfectly within the limitations of your motherboard and CPU. Good luck pal!
