Only one 8 gig stick on memory support for that board so anything else you try is up to you. I would think anything that used the right voltage your board supports would be fine.  I like coasair or gskill myself i seem to have good luck with both.

I would go along with the general sentiments too. Get some good quality memory like Corsair, Crucial or Mushkin and you should be alrighjt. You will probabluy, have to increase the voltage on the controller a touch to make up for the extra loading but apart from that I don't forsee any problems.
