So i'm looking to purchase the following motherboard:
http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E168...

As you can see it comes with a free 8GB of Crucial Ballistix Sport DDR3 1600 RAM.
Anyways what i'm wondering is could I also purchase the following RAM:
http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E168...

I had originally planned on buying the second set of RAM (DDR3 1866) but seeing as the motherboard currently comes with 8GB of DDR3 1600 would I be able to use both types?

It will default to the 1600mhz, if you mix it.But yes it will run them together more than likely.

Yes , they will run on that board together , but the ram will run at 1600 mhz. not 1866 mhz.
