I want to increase the amount of ram that I have on my computer, and I do not know if I should just buy two more sticks of what I have already (I think it is bad ram, I do not know if there is bad ram though). Or to buy new sticks entirely. Here are my computer's components. I need help making sure ram is compatible with my current build. Thanks in advance.

I will look and see, I just need to find something compatible

 
with that mb any 1600 kit that 1.5v will work. under msi mb info will be a memory qal list you can download. there are a short list of tested ram. the hard part is finding the same ram kits as most vendors change one letter of there kits over time when they switch ram chips.
