Hi everyone, I'm planning to upgrade my Computer and have some questions about RAM compatibility. my Specs are:

-Mobo: Asus Prime X570-P

-CPU: Ryzen 3700x

-GPU: 2060Super

-RAM: ADATA XPG 16GB (ax4u300038g 16-bwz)

 

I'm currently upgrading the RAM to 32GB but couldn't find the exact same ram. My question is if the last three letters matter because i've seen similar XPG RAMs ( Exact model number except the last three letters) with different heatsink colors (Mine is White, I'm assuming that the W in bwz is White)

 

Here is the RAM that i'm planning to buy

It appears that the last three letters indicate the color in general, so you're probably fine. If it's same manufacturer, same speed, and same timings, then it should be functionally the same.
