You're checking if adding more RAM is possible. The current setup uses two 8GB Corsair Vengeance LPX sticks at 3200Mhz. Research shows Corsair advises against mixing RAM from different kits, even if specs match. This means it's best to stick with the same kit for optimal performance and stability. Safe to upgrade, but ensure compatibility.

Kits include DIMMs that are typically verified to function together, and they may feature various timing options based on the number of dimmers. If you locate matching parts (same DRAM chips), you're likely to encounter fewer problems compared to using rams with different DRAM types. Still, combining rams isn't risk-free.
