Will this work? (Memory sticks with different heat spreader colors)

[phucahwa]

Hello,

I'm planning on getting these 4 memory sticks, from the same company with exact same specs but different heat spreader/led colors, installed on the GIGABYTE Z170 GAMING 7. Will there be issues with the board not recognizing them as dual channel?

Memory:
(Red LED) GeIL SUPER LUCE 16GB (2 x 8GB) 288-Pin DDR4 SDRAM DDR4 2400 (PC4 19200) Desktop Memory Model GLWB416GB2400C15DC

(White LED) GeIL SUPER LUCE 16GB (2 x 8GB) 288-Pin DDR4 SDRAM DDR4 2400 (PC4 19200) Desktop Memory Model GLWW416GB2400C15DC

Motherboard:
GIGABYTE G1 Gaming GA-Z170X-Gaming 7

Thank you for your time,

If you need 32GB of memory you should be looking at the 5820K processor and motherboard, the price to build it is about the same and gives you 2 more cores. ( thinking your using the 6700K)
They should /might work their never a guarantee when buying memory in different sets that's why it's always best to buy a set of 4 sticks if your using 4.
To answer your question their really no answer other than you should be able to get it to work but might need some tweaking.

No guarantees when mixing DRAM from different packages - even if the same exact model and bought at the same exact time. If you try and have problems give a shout and we can try timings/voltage adjustments

Thank you for the quick responses. I'm still putting together a list for my build. Will spend sometime to look into the 5820k option.
