I can tell you that the new RAM will be fine in your motherboard.

Be advised however that, even if the 2 x 8GB set you already have is the exact same thing, there is no guarantee that the 2 sets will work together. You could by 2 sets of those and there is no guarantee that they will work together. The only way to guarantee that they will work together is to buy a 4 x 8GB set and sell your old 2 x 8GB set

What do you have in there now ?
