While it's never a good idea to mix DRAM if you have to, best to go with the same exact model (and even that can be problematic - that's why they sell sticks in a variety of amounts and the bigger sets cost a little more - takes time to find 4 sticks that all play nice together 
) but with same exact model can often get them to play with minor voltage/timing adjustments if they don't want to play out of the package

Depends on the models you are looking at, they come in a variety of freqs, CLs, voltages, etc in the 1600 freq alone they have like 38 or more sets under HyperX

Thanks, that's what I thought would be the best case scenario.
The final question...by looking at the physical stick itself, will that be labeled with info that I would use to buy the same type?

Should be on the label, or if you don't want to go digging - look in CPU-Z (a free utility program you can download) in the SPD tab next to Part Number - it will give you the sticks model #
