its has 3 gb in it, and it says it can have up to 8gb but only has to slots so ausomed that it could? i may be wrong but here where i got my evidence xD

click the view quick configurations tab it says 4GB in each slot?

would it be ok to just put them in and see if they work or could that reuin my pc / or the new ram i bought? cuz they looks big to me but it might just be me

Sure, either it will work, or it will beep at you telling you the RAM is no good to it, never know it might work if they updated the BIOS

Should, yes...the premades are set to specific defaults, if your new sticks were to work, it would be at 1333, factory spec, which is the bad thing w/ store bought, you can seldom do much of anything in the BIOS...with your new rig, you'll have options galore
