Hello, I'm trying to increase my RAM from 16GB to 48GB. I have a HyperX Fury 16GB (2x8GB) 3200MHz CL16 1.35V dual kit and plan to get another HyperX Fury 32GB (2x16GB) 3200MHz CL16 1.35V dual kit. My current setup uses an ASRock B450 Steel Legend motherboard with a Ryzen 7 3700X and an RTX 3070 graphics card. I'm unsure if this upgrade will work smoothly.

As long as the device can handle that amount of RAM, it should work fine.

This should function, though you may need to reduce the speed. This comes from my own experience when increasing from 32GB (two 16GB modules) to 64GB with two extra 16GB modules.
