...I intend to add another module however I cant find the zion RAM anymore so I was thinking of getting this : Corsair DDR3 4 GB(1 x 4GB) PC RAM (CMV4GX3M1A1600C11)

Do you think they will work together? any chances of bluescreen or errors?
 
Solution
It's very difficult to predict compatability between RAM. Usually the motherboard will default both to the lowest common timings for each stick for compatability. This can sometimes be much slower than normal.

Always buy RAM in a matched set.
