okay so, would it work if i got myself some geil dragon ram, 2 8GB and 2 4GB.

Same speed and all that just different memory sizes.
 
Solution
yes thats fine if they are the same model and all. Same speed is not really necessarily same speed - the latency could be different, etc. I thin your board lets you adjust each bank of ram individually so I think you will be fine regardless. You may have to disable 1t mode if its enabled.
