Can I use This Ram?

Hi! I have 2x8GB in my system. It is 1600 Mhz Adata. If I put 2x8GB 1600Mhz G-Skill will it still work? I feel like I have herd conflicting reports. 

Are the timings and latency the same? Timings don't matter so much but the latency should be the same for best results.

My account is almost entirely dormant. Hope you all are having a grand time. Many years of fun were had here.

As long as the timing and latency of both ram sets are the same it should work fine.

It will work, but it'll be as slow as the slowest RAM.....Of that makes sense
