Don't even get me started on the stupidity of HDD manufacturers in what they did to screw everyone years ago...
I would have sent those memory sticks back if I were you; unless there's fine print that states RAM is measured in factors of 1000 instead 1024 (like HDDs). It certainly IS an issue to me. If I buy a stick of RAM that states 16GB, I expect all the RAM to be there. If I buy a 16oz soda, I expect 16oz in the can, not 15.3oz.
