2 16GB DDR4 kits running together

Hello,

 

I want to upgrade my system to 32GB of ram for caching as well as just necessity.

I currently have this kit

https://www.amazon.com/Corsair-Vengeance-3000MHz-Desktop-Memory/dp/B014JESKRW/ref=mp_s_a_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1547488679&sr=8-1&pi=AC_SX236_SY340_FMwebp_QL65&keywords=corsair%2Bvengeance%2Blpx%2B16gb%2Bddr4&dpPl=1&dpID=41AGvSmY-fL&ref=plSrch&th=1&psc=1

 

If I purchase a second one of these, what is the chances of these working well together?

Will I be able to run all 4 of these stickss at their rated 3000mhz speed when paired with a Ryzen 7 1700?

 

Thanks for your time

2 things to note. #1 I'm fairly certain that Ryzen deals with high speed RAM quite well so you shouldn't have any issues with it running all 32 gigs at 3000 Mhz. #2 in reality your RAM doesn't actually run at 3000 Mhz, I forget the reasoning why but posted speeds aren't accurate. Your RAM will run just fine with another 16 gig set just know it'll run as dual channel memory and not quad channel.

Cool that's what I thought, I was just concerned about running different kits at the rated (or close to it) speeds.
