Hello! I am trying to upgrade my RAM in the PC I just bought. The PC I have now has two Kingston FURY 8 GB DDR5-5200 MHz DIMMs. I would like to buy two more 8 GB sticks but I am worried about mixing CAS Latencies. I read online that this could be suboptimal. Does anyone have information on what the CL is for these sticks, or do I even need to worry about this? Also do should I worry about mixing transfer speeds? Thanks for your time if you read this. 😄

Don't add more sticks. The motherboard doesn't accept 4 dimms. I have the same memory on my Omen 25L, I added another 2x8 GB kingston fury 5200 and the bios reject any speed. I can't find any stable configuration. Even if the dimms are the same model, speed and latencies, they are not compatible if they proceed from different kits.
Instead buy a 2x16 GB kit and replace the old sticks. It's more expensive but it's the only way it works. Trust me.
