Hi,
I want to add more RAM to my pc. Currently I have 2 sticks of 4gb(linked below), and I was going to order 2 more sticks of 4gb to make 16gb, but newegg doesn't sell the same exact RAM anymore. What are my other options? Am I able to buy any RAM as long as the numbers are the same, such as: DDR3 1600 (PC3 12800), Timing 9-9-9-24, CAS Latency 9, Voltage 1.5V? Does the brand matter?
Is it worth it to have 4 sticks of 4gb to make 16? People say 2x8 is better, but that's double the price and the RAM I have now would be useless.

Thanks in advance!
