Hello,
I will like to upgrade my RAM (G.SKILL F3-19200CL11D-8GBXLD 8GB (2X4GB)) from 8gb to 16gb. Which RAM or which pair compatible do you suggest me?

Motherboard:Crosshair V Formula-Z
Processor:AMD FX 8350
Memory:G.SKILL F3-19200CL11D-8GBXLD 8GB (2X4GB)

4 x DIMM, Max. 32GB, DDR3 2400(O.C.)/2000(O.C.)/1600/1333/1066 MHz ECC, Non-ECC, Un-buffered Memory
Dual Channel Memory Architecture
* Refer to www.asus.com or user manual for the Memory QVL (Qualified Vendors Lists).
* Due to OS limitation, when installing total memory of 4GB capacity or more, Windows® 32-bit operation system may only recognize less than 3GB. Install a 64-bit Windows® OS when you want to install 4GB or more memory on the motherboard.

This should be all the information you need.
considering it's dual channel, sticking with just 2 pieces should prove wise.

Freeprice thanks for your reply i alrdy check the Manual from my Motherbord and my question is my G.SKILL F3-19200CL11D-8GBXLD 8GB (2X4GB) is only for Dual channel and i have tried a pair of CORSAIR CMY8GX3M2A2400C11R VENGEANCE PRO 8GB (2X4GB) DDR3 2400MHZ C11 DUAL CHANNEL KIT from a friend to reach my 16GB of ram then on the first boot alot of beeps start so i Clear CMOS i DierectKey to boot on bios nothing happent.
Conclusion:Can my motherbord holds 4 pairs of 2400MHZ becouse on manufacturer say's 2400 O.C.
Is posible to keep my old F3-19200CL11D-8GBXLD so i dont have to buy Fresh new 16 GB

Yeah, when you're trying to boot in O.C. mode you're going to have to enter the bios and select the right frequency for your ram. My computer is supposed to run in certain OC modes but I get beeps. Running in OC mode is not a solve all, some motherboards still have issues. It can be processor speed issue, power issue, etc. You just kind of have to fiddle with it and find the sweet spot. There is a tool for benchmarking your ram from your working solutions called Maxxmem. For my personal system I prefer to run my ram without the higher speeds because it runs faster and more stable.
