I want to know if two 4gb kits will work well on my motherboard since its not a dual channel Motherboard
I have H81 m-p33
I have corsair vengeance 8gb (2x4gb). They didnt come in a single kit though. I bought them seperately
 
Solution
According to Newegg, your motherboard is dual channel. Yes they will work, and if dual channel isnt enabled for some reason, you will see a small performance hit, but nothing big enough to consider getting a new motherboard over.
