Yep that would work fine. That memory will also fit under the big air coolers if you are overclocking.

I see you already have 8GB, can't you just find another kit to match the 8GB you have now? You sure you need 16GB? For gaming 8 is plenty.

What Kit would work? The kits available now doesn't specify any requirements! Just the Kingston one made for kingston ram only which looked like the best one

That GSkill linked to above is excellent. It will work fine with your system and is about the best "bang for your buck" right now.
