I currently have 2x 4GB of ram installed but want to upgrade to 16. Can I simply purchase an 8GB stick and add this?
My Motherboard is a GA-B250M-DS3H and the ram I have is 2x 4GB DDR4 Corsair Vengeance and would be looking to add the 8GB equivalent.
And if this was ok to do, how would I go about doing it? Would I have to add the 8GB into a certain slot?
EDIT: Motherboard specs.

- 4 x DDR4 DIMM sockets supporting up to 64 GB of system memory
* Due to a Windows 32-bit operating system limitation, when more than 4 GB of physical memory is installed, the actual memory size displayed will be less than the size of the physical memory installed. - Dual channel memory architecture
- Support for DDR4 2400* / 2133 MHz memory modules
* To support 2400 MHz or XMP memory, you must install a 7th generation processor. - Support for ECC Un-buffered DIMM 1Rx8/2Rx8 memory modules (operate in non-ECC mode)
- Support for non-ECC Un-buffered DIMM 1Rx8/2Rx8/1Rx16 memory modules
- Support for Extreme Memory Profile (XMP) memory modules
