Hello, welcome! Your setup looks solid with the B450 and your components. Yes, it is definitely possible to configure a 4 stick RAM setup on a Ryzen 5 platform. The PCPartPicker forum you mentioned is correct—using dual-channel mode can help you reach the full 32 GB of memory available with your PNY CS900 SSD. Just ensure your motherboard supports dual-channel and that your RAM sticks are compatible. You won’t need to buy a different CPU unless you plan to upgrade later.

Absolutely, utilizing both channels on your Tomahawk is ideal. It supports dual channel and offers 32Gb throughput.

That works well (and usually offers improved results compared to using two sticks). Ensure your motherboard supports four RAM slots. Some budget models may only provide two slots.
