Hello!

I am actually building up my PC, and I've got everything except the RAMs.

I have a Gigabyte x99-ud3 Motherboard which off course is going to have i7 5820k. This motherboard is a quad channel. But my question is will i be able to run a 2x8gb ddr4 2666mhz dual kit on it for the time being and then buy another two 2x8gb ddr4 2666mhz?
It is this RAM I'm talking about : http://m.newegg.com/Product?itemNumber=N82E16820104573
-----> in case the link didnt open, here is the name of the ram

HX426C15FBK2/16

I am just planning on using 2x8gb and later on buy another two. Because i cant afford buying the 4 kit right now so i thought about buying two now and then another two. Will they work Fine? And what i mean by fine is that will they have the same performance as a 4-kit quad channel ram have? Or will thr performance be lower? Because I've read that there something special about these quad channel support motherboard.
Thank you so much
