and select memory upgrade

If you model supports 16 GB (2x8) then 8 + 2 GB will be fine

Be advised that a mismatched pair of RAM modules will be less efficient that a matched pair of the same capacity.

As often is the case, it is dependent upon one's definition of 'efficient' or 'noticeable' and what sources one rely's upon to support their position.
