Few questions about purchasing new ram.
Me and my brother (We both have near identical setups, our MOBO's and RAM are the same down in my biography). We are both wanting to upgrade from 8 to 16gb, and am wondering what the best way would be to do it. Here is what i'm thinking.
A. We buy 2x8gb, and we each get a stick.
B. We buy 2x8gb. Someone gets both the 8gb sticks, and gives the other one the 2x4 sticks.
C. We buy 4x4gs, and we each get 2 sticks.
A few questions, i know that we can't interchange ddr3/ddr4, so we would just be buying ddr3 (Unless we go with B), But is having a 4gb/4gb/8gb ram configuration ok? Or does it need to be "Symmetrical".

Are the 2 i am considering, are they compatible with my MOBO? And which one would be best?
