i looked at the gigabyte list, but all of the 1866 RAM for every single motherboard only is supported in either 1gb or 2gb sticks.

The board will easily support it, it depends on your CPU's IMC and how good it is, that will judge what speed RAM you will be able to run.

i7 2600k.

but on the gigabyte site they don't have that RAM or any other 8GB 1866 models listed for the motherboard

The qualified vendor list is just the RAM they've had in their labs and tested. It doesn't mean other brands/sizes/speeds wont work.
