Earlier I bought this Corsair CMV4GX3M1A1600C11 1600MHz 4GB DDR3 X 2, now buying 2 more is fine? Or Buy 2 X 4 GB 1866 Mhz and keep old 1600 Mhz as well.

if u havent purchased yet, then buy rams of same mhz as you have in your system. Its best not to mix up. @smartnsh

If you use RAM with different frequency then it’s overall frequency will be same as the least one.

Always buy same model as the current one any reason why your upgrading to 16Gb Ram?

For dual channel use the same frequency rams in alternate slots and you can check whether are working in dual channel mode or not via softwares like CPUz.
