I am planing to build a new PC, and the motherboard is gonna be Gigabyte GA-Z170-HD3 (DDR4 version). I plan to get 8 GB, and HX421C14FBK2/8 (2x4GB) is cheap in my country currently, and this was the one I planned. However, checking Gigabytes website, only HX421C14FBK4/16 (4x4GB) from Kingston modules shows to be compatible. Can't I really use HX421C14FBK2/8, even if modules are practiclly the same?
 
Solution
That memory should work just fine the website only list what they have tested with the board they can't test all the memory made.
