Different Memory Sticks | Need Help Please

[Chad Fisher]

At the moment I have 8GB of DDR3 RAM 1600Mhz, but I do want to upgrade. But I cannot afford 2 x 8GB sticks at the moment

So I was wondering if I purchase only one of these sticks at the moment

Will it mix with this RAM stick, that I currently have:

And will i have any issues until I can purchase another one of those sticks?

Thanks!

I wouldn't recommend it. Mixing RAM sticks is always a risky venture. If you're going to mix sizes, I'd at least stay with the same manufacture, model and timings as the RAM you already have.
