Hi..i have question regarding pairing ddr4 RAMS...

i recently upgraded my air cooler to a Cryorig H5 Ultimate..its an impressive cooler...but the problem is..its take up 1 RAM slot..the only way to use the 1st ram slot is to get 1 with a 35mm height clearance

i have 2 G.skill rip jaws V 8gb each 2400mhz and 1 rip jaws IV 8gb 2400mhz..so since the only way that i can use the 1st ram slot is to get a RAM with no heastsink...will i be able to pair an ordinary ddr4 ram(kingston) to my extra ripjaws IV RAM??both will have the same clock speed and size (8GB and 2400mhz)

i usually do video renderings and video editings so thats why i need to increase my RAM


thanks in advance to those who will answer
