You have a 32GB kit from Kingston and are considering adding a 64GB upgrade. Both come from the same manufacturer with compatible components. There are no major compatibility issues between them, though you should verify that your motherboard supports the higher capacity and that the system meets all power and thermal requirements.

The main worry is attempting to use 4 sticks with DDR5. It's not as simple as it sounds. Are you ready to spend a lot of time trying to make them work? Would you be fine if you could only run them at DDR5-4800 or even lower speeds?

What CPU and motherboard are you using? Both AMD and Intel significantly limit memory controller performance when running four sticks (their approach is to let you handle it yourself). When you run both single and dual ranks in the same channel, things become more complex. Still, you’ll gain extra capacity if it doesn’t work out—just swap out the 32GB package. If you really need 96GB and aren’t keen on deep tuning, consider a (2x48) 96GB or (2x64) 128GB upgrade instead. If your BIOS is outdated but you want to proceed, I’d update it to the latest version for optimal compatibility.

consider trading in your existing 32GB unit for a 2x48 or 2x64 configuration. iics should align, but the challenge is significant—extensive tuning required even with slow DDR5 6000+ speed. many topologies and resistances need adjustment, with double the components compared to AM4 OH. there’s little positive feedback on stabilizing tri-rank setups; users often report needing unconventional resistance values and spending a lot of time testing. investing in a 96GB kit could save hours of frustration and ensure smoother XMP performance.

Try running 4x16GB sticks first; they work better with your setup. Lower capacity DIMMs tolerate it more. If that doesn’t help, stick with 2x64 or 2x48 as recommended.
