Concerned may be a better choice of words. You should be worried if you do not install single kits (of 2 sticks). Before opening the package look closely at the two RAM sticks. They should be identical - the label, the part numbers, the number of chips, the numbers on the chips, the boards, etc.
To be safe, when you order your parts also order an Anti-Static wrist strap. It should come with instructions or just look at a YouTube video after you've done a search on the YouTube search bar. You cannot touch the chips, you cannot touch the etches, you cannot touch the fingers. You can only squeeze the module from the long sides. When pushing them down into the slot push from both sides. The Power cord must be removed and the mobo LED has to be off. If the RAM gets a static charge it will weaken it and will probably die in 9 months.
