I was looking to upgrade my RAM a bit and I found this one is (what i think) really cheap - 4G DDR3 1600 KINGST HYPER FURY for about $30. My question is, will it work with my current RAM 2X4G DDR3 2133 Kingston HyperX Beast and motherboard ASRock h97 pro4? If not, what ram would you suggest around $30-40 that would fit well.

Rest of the build:

ASRock h97 pro4
Xeon E3-1226 V3
GTX Gigabyte 1050 Ti
Fortron 650W RAIDER SILVER
HAF 922

 
Solution
Ram compatibility is tricky. The rams could have matching size, speeds,voltages, cas latency and work in theory, but you can't be sure until you try. Most people will tell you that it's a bad idea to mix ram sticks and you are better off buying identical rams.
