Compatibility question about DDR3 ram

[swaghou]

Hello,

I have Asrock H97 Pro4 mobo https://www.asrock.com/mb/Intel/H97%20Pro4/

Which supports only dual channel ram. And currently I have 2x4GB plates of G Skill F3-12800CL9-8GBXL according to HWiNFO and CPU-Z,even though when I google F3-12800CL9-8GBXL it shows up as F3-12800CL9D-8GBXL.

So I'm looking to expand the RAM to 16GB and the local shop only has these 3 variants of 2x4GB dual channels available

So I'm wondering which of these 3 if any at all would be compatible with my current G.Skill ones and If I'm able to expand to 16 gigs at all. I know one of these is at 1866mhz but It should downscale to 1600mhz I hope. Thanks

The G.Skill memory probably has the best chance. Same speeds, timings, and voltage.

There is literally no guarantee. But it should work. Worst case you'll have to set the timings manually.
