Will they work well together? (8x2 + 8x2 => 32gb)

Kingston HyperX Genesis 16GB 1600MHZ DDR3 NON-ECC CL9 (KHX16C9K2/16X)
Kingston HyperX Savage 16GB 1600MHZ DDR3 NON-ECC CL9 (HX316C9SRK2/16)

Maybe ;) There's no guarantees when mixing packages of DRAM - even with 2 identical packages (same model) it's a 50/50 crapshoot if they will play - DRAM that is packaged together has had those sticks tested to ensure they play together. You can pull sticks right off the assembly line and they may or might not play
