Adding RAM to PC

[anikkumar]

I want add ram to my pc. I already have dual channel 2x8Gb G.Skill Ripjaws V DDR4 3200 CL16 (F4-3200C16D-16GVKB) installed. I want to add RAM to my pc. Which RAMs are compatible with this RAM I have?

The best solution would be to get another set of the exact same modules, if you can't get any or they're too expensive, modules with the same speed, latency (in your case, 3200MHz/CL16) and capacity should still work fine and stable.

Generic plastic heatspreader xmp rams come with completely random ics so even the same part number will have different ics

 

Once ic is identified just find someone selling a buncha oem rams and order the rams that have your specific ic on them

 

So if you have samsung 8gbit d die youd buy m378a1k43db2 (8gb single sided) for 4x8 32gb dual rank or m378a2k43db1 (16gb double sided) for 2x8 + 2x16 48gb cursed tri rank, or if you have hynix 8gbit djr youd buy hma81gu6djr8n (8gb single sided) or hma82gu6djr8n (16gb double sided)

 

This guarantees compatibility and also means your xmp profile should work without issue

 

3200 is pretty slow so even a weak board or weak imc should be fine even in cursed tri rank except zen(+) cause then youd have to actually tune it to hit 3200, but ill just assume you arent using zen(+) and are using anything from 6th-14th gen intel and zen2/3

Indeed, as Zen 3 its recommended to use 3600 memory and its almost always easier to get 2x sticks to work than 4x.
