theres no issue theres just no point.

you won't have any speed advantage with 4 sticks over 2 since the motherboard is dual channel meaning it can only read/write to 2 sticks at a time.

I'd go with 2x8GB since it would leave you room to upgrade to 32GB later on if you needed to for some reason without having to throw out your ram.
