I have a gaming pc with 8gb of ram, and I want to upgrade to 16gb. Currently, I have one stick of this ram. https://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=9SIA6FT53V1449&ignorebbr=1&nm_mc=KNC-GoogleMKP-PC&cm_mmc=KNC-GoogleMKP-PC-_-pla-_-Memory+%28Desktop+Memory%29-_-9SIA6FT53V1449&gclid=Cj0KEQjw1ufKBRDYrqLzrY3dy88BEiQAPI_r4SrXCyskqvjLHOP0fIEELHOw5eX29C3xXWKi1Y-RFjwaAvIa8P8HAQ&gclsrc=aw.ds
Do I need to get another stick of that, or can I add one of the two listed below?

Same specs, similar prices, same chance of working with your current memory. Aside from Ballistix one, which gives better chance, but costs considerably more then others. As long as you buy from site that allows returns (in case they don't work together), it should not matter which you choose.

If you are using 2 different brands of ram, you generally want the same voltage. You also want them to have the same ram speed. Having different voltage is not recommended at all, and having different ram speeds will make all your ram sticks as fast as the slowest one.

Do you know of any ram sticks with those specs and 1.35 V?

Is there a particular one of these you would recommend, or should I just go with the cheapest?
