There is nothing that will stop you from mixing different RAM, but there is absolutely no guarantee it will work at that point.

You could plug the second stick in and it work fine, while on the other hand, you could plug the second stick and it not boot. RAM is very finicky when it comes to mix and matching. Different companies have different methods of manufacturing and materials, and no one could say for certain if they will work.

However, no harm should come from trying the second stick to see if the system works with it in.

Both are DDR3, so they should be compatible with your cpu and mobo.
