Optiplex 990 Ram Upgrade

Hello guys, I hope y'all are having a nice day. I'm new to this forum so I hope you guide me if I already violated any rules lol. So, back to the point.

 

I've been wanting to upgrade my Optiplex 990 DT's RAM for a while now. I have some Ripjaws installed at 8 gigs and although it runs my games pretty fine, there's some stutters so I have my eyes on for a 16gig upgrade. A problem I ran into was looking for RAM sticks that are compatible. Your help will be very appreciated. Thanks.

PC specs:

Motherboard: MSI B450 TOMAHAWK (NON-MAX) ATX

CPU: AMD Ryzen 7 3700X 3.6GHz

RAM: 16GB (8x2) ADATA Gammix Pro

GPU: PNY GeForce RTX 3060 12GB XLR8

SSD: ADATA 250GB nVME M.2 (boot)

SSD: PNY CS900 1TB

Cooler: CoolerMaster ML240L V2 RGB AIO

PSU: EVGA 600W 80+

Case: Rosewill T500 Prism w/ 4 UpHere RGB fans

DDR3, sir. We're going to put the budget out of the way and get to the compatible sticks.
