While 16 G as 2X8 is a supported configuration, whether that RAM will or won't work is a question for your vendor.
If you want guaranteed-to-work memory, see

The memory will fit the system -- whether it'll work, you'll have to try. Sometimes HyperX memory (which is aggressively timed for gaming) has trouble with lower-end systems like yours. All you can do is try.
