Hey everyone,

 

I am looking to see if two 8GB sticks of RAM from different manufacturers will be compatible with each other. I currently have one 8GB stick of ADATA Xpg Flame DDR4 (Full specs here: http://www.adata.com/us/feature/404) RAM on my ASRock H110M-DGS motherboard (https://www.asrock.com/mb/Intel/H110M-DGS/index.asp). I am looking to upgrade to 16GB and I know you should always try to have all your RAM be exactly the same but mine is currently out of stock on Newegg, the only place I could find it right now. I bought my current stick at Canada Computers and it looks like they no longer sell this model.

 

So, I am wondering if this G.SKILL stick (http://www.canadacomputers.com/product_info.php?cPath=24_311_1326&item_id=092269) will work in addition to my current setup. It is also DDR4 2133MHz. From what I've been able to tell this means it should theoretically work paired with the ADATA stick but I'm no expert. If anyone knows if this new stick would work with my current one that would be greatly appreciated as I am going to Canada Computers tomorrow anyways.
