Hello @tweake628

 

If you are replacing the existing ram with 32GB, that GSkill set should work fine. I don't have any way of knowing if a specific model of ram will work, but Ive never had issues with GSkill.

 

If you are only going to add 8 GB, you need to make sure you are matching the timings of the existing memory to ensure compatibility. Its probably not worth the cost for going from 12 to 16 GB.
