Hello, I own two 8 GB RAM Corsair Vengeance LPX16GB DDR4 3600 sticks. Thinking about the massive needs of Cyberpunk, I wondered if adding more RAM would be worthwhile since it only costs 50 euros for two more sticks (36 GB total). I’m not planning to upgrade my Ryzen 5800X or RTX 3080. Is it really that simple to install?

Sure, the math mistake is all clear. What do you think about the rest of the question?

You had a 5800x with four 8GB SSDs running at 3600MHz, and adding more later didn’t cause any issues.

Need a bit of luck to play 4 sticks at 3600, though sometimes it works. If not, reduce the frequency slightly, like to 3200, and consider purchasing the identical set you’re using now.
