Hi

I already have 16 GB (2x8) of G.skill trident Z 4133 Mhz ram in my pc but my friend offerd me another 16(2x8) gb ram of trident Z 4000 Mhz for a cheap price but I'm not sure if I should take it or not , my questions are :

1. Would my 16GB old 4133 Mhz trident Z work together with the new 16GB 4000 Mhz trident z from my friend ?  

2. Can I set the frequency of both to 4133 Mhz ? 

3. Is there any benefits with 32 GB of ram ? Would it help with performance in gaming if the gpu is not bottlenecked ? I mostly play games at 4K ultra settings but there are a few games where I like to be competetive and get the most fps possible.

My specs right now :

MSI Tomshwak Z390

i7 9700K @ 5.0 Ghz

16 GB of ram Trident Z @4133 mhz (right now)

RTX 2080 Ti 

1TB M.2 970 EVO SSD

Yes

Yes, but its considered overclocking. And as always, with overclocking you risk it not working. So yeah you can set it to this, but it MIGHT not work

Not really, unless you play unoptimized games, early acces etc. generally 16gb is more than enough for gaming.

Gamesystem: X3700, 32GB memory @3200mhz, GTX1080 Hybrid

Unraid system: Epyc 7352, 24/48, 96GB ECC buffered @2666mhz, 2x GT710, GTX1050Ti
