I've already installed a 2x8Gb G.Skill F4-3200C15-8GTZKY on my Desktop (TUF Z370-Pro Gaming+i5 8600K). I'm now considering upgrading to 32Gb RAM but haven't found any compatible memory with the same specifications. I'm trying to decide the best approach:

1) Purchase another G.Skill or Crucial kit with lower timings and attempt to pair it with my current setup.
2) Buy another G.Skill or Crucial kit with lower timings and try to extend the timings of the new kit.
3) Sell my current RAM and buy a 2x16GB kit (not my preferred choice).

Thanks in advance for your help.

Absolutely, match the same times or go for a new RAM setup.

Check the manufacturer of your specific RAM and search for comparable chips from other brands. It’s best to prioritize matching timing specifications.
