i have the hyperx fury black ddr4 2133mhz, it can change its cl timings between 15-19 BUT now my question is, i have the 2x4gb kit and i wonder can i buy a 2x8gb kit and have both at the same time? mobo has 4 ram slots and my ram that i have now can even OC to the highest mhz up to 3466mhz.
here is a link to my ram:https://www.hyperxgaming.com/us/memory/fury-ddr4

It's certainly possible, but no guarantees. There's a reason RAM is sold in 'kits' - they're tested to work together at the rated speeds.

Mixing & matching can be problematic and, in the event it does just 'work', you're going to be limited by the lower common denominator in speed, timings etc.

I dont see why the new ddr4 memory wouldnt be compatible with the mobo, my current ram is the hyperx fury ddr4 2133mhz, the new ram that im going to buy is the ballistix sport lt white at 266mhz they have cl 16, and since my hyperx fury ram can change its cl timings between 15-19 and oc up to the highest published frequency and that will be 2666 then, so i dont see why it wouldnt work
