Hello guys, I need a little help of you

I have already builded my rig about two years ago, but now I think my PC is starting to get a little slower, mainly when I am playing the MMORPG Perfect World, in multi accounts at the same time. Sometimes they consume more RAM than normal, and if 4 are open, the PC starts to get very slow, so I thought of putting another 8GB of memory on it.

Build:
CPU - i5 4570
RAM - KHX16c9b1bk2/8
Mobo - Gigabyte B85M-D3H
GPU - EVGA GTX 980
PSU - Corsair RM 1000

But I was worried about compatibility issues, since I have a Kingstone Hyper X Black, and I can't seem to find another one to buy. At Gigabyte memory supported lists, under my mobo is the list:
Kingston 2GB KHX1600C9D3K2/4GX DS v v
Kingston 4GB KHX1600C9D3/4G DS v v
Kingston 4GB KHX1600C9D3K8/32GX DS v v
Kingston 4GB KHX1600C9D3LK2/8GX DS v v
Kingston 4GB KHX1600C9D3K2/8GX DS v v
Kingston 8GB KHX1600C10D3B1/8G DS v v
Kingston 8GB KHX16C9P1K2/16 DS v v
Kingston 8GB KHX16C10B1K2/16X DS v v
Kingston 8GB F3-1600C11S-8GNT DS v v

In which my RAM is not even included :(

My final question is, is it possible to happen any kind of problem on my PC if I buy any other kind of 8GB Kingston Dual Slot (4+4)?

Like that, in my mind at least, the problem will be solved, 4+4+4+4, reaching my desired 16Gb.

Thanks in advance

your better off using 2 stick of ram and selling or using the other ram in another build or give it to a friend when they go build a pc that needs ddr3 ram.

a lot of the newer intel mb sometime with 4 stick you have to bump the dram voltage..some mb dont like running with four sticks of ram. most mb with two stick of 8g each your pc should run fine and be stable.
