they should work fine. if it doesnt you might have to do some minor manual tuning, but it should work.

So already existing in my system are a pair of 8gb gskill ripjaw sticks @ 3200mhz. And i wanted to upgrade my system with more ram and make it a bit flashier. So I was wondering if I could put gskill trident z rgb sticks in, In addition to the sticks already in there? They would be the same speed and I would get an additional pair of 8gb. I'm mainly asking if there would compatibility issues or not.
