Your objective being to end up wth 24 GB RAM installed - correct?

Details needed:

What motherboard do you have?

What OS is installed?

What RAM (full specs) are you using and intend add?

I think it will work if its a slow enough speed like 2133-2400mhz. Ryzen is very picky on ram, though it has gotten a lot better.

Link to motherboard specs:

However, do look for the User Manual just to be certain about the acceptable memory and memory configurations.

The following link may be the manual for your motherboard:

However, do doublecheck to ensure that that is indeed the correct manual.

Ryzen is not as bad as most make it about ram. I currently have a 3200 rated kit in my ryzen build running great, even with a slight xmp. DO NOT GO WITH A KIT SLOWER THAN 3000 MHZ WITH RYZEN!!! Doing so will tank the performance dramatically. The Infinity fabric connecting the multiple dies in ryzen runs at 1/2 of the memory speed, so when you use slow ram with ryzen the dies in ryzen cannot communicate as fast.

I got a 3200 CL 14 kits running also, but If I swap it out with non Samsung B-die i'm lucky to get 2666 lol.

Nobody can answer that, it might work, might not work, and might be made to work with adjustments.

Anytime you add more memory their a chance it will not work. Crucial says they guarantee compatibility if you buy it from their site after using their system scanner.

It may work, but it won't work in duel or quad channel and will lose some performance because of that. You should sell your ram and buy a kit the size you want, in a standard size like 16 or 32 GB (you wont use more than 16..)
For them to be in quad channel you'd need to bottleneck all the ram to the slowest stick and hope they'd all run at the same timings and frequency.

You can't run quad channel on that board.
