Will this work in my DDR4 motherboard?

No. These are DDR3 240-pin DIMMs and will not fit DDR4 or DDR5 slots. Check your board's spec sheet for DDR3 support before buying.

Can I use just two of the four sticks?

Yes. Each module is a standalone 8GB DIMM, so you can install two for 16GB and keep the rest as spares. Matched pairs in the correct slots work best.

For older DDR3-era CPUs it is the common sweet spot. Modern games on DDR3 platforms are limited more by the CPU than by 1600 MHz memory.

Usually not. Most boards detect 1600 MHz automatically. If the kit runs slower, enable XMP or set the speed and timings manually in BIOS.

It may work if the existing sticks match in speed and voltage, but mixing brands and ranks often causes instability. A full matched kit is safer.
