Question 32gb or 64gb ram kit (I already have 32gb)

[PhilSavory]

Hello, if I buy another Corsair 163301 Vengeance LPX 32 GB (2 x 16 GB) DDR4 3200 MHz C16 XMP 2.0 High Performance Desktop Memory Kit, Black will it be compatible with my motherboard; that is will it recognise it as 64gb in addition to the 32gb (2x16gb) already installed? It is cheaper for me to buy another kit than buy a 64gb kit, as I am sure you will appreciate. My motherboard is a MSI Z390-A PRO. Thanks in advance.

Memory is guaranteed in the form sold. Other combinations you decide to create have no guarantee to be compatible together.

Are you currently running out of your 32GB?

My original 32gb kit is working great, no problems, but if I upgrade do I just buy another 32gb kit or a 64gb kit?

If you're not using up your current 32GB, adding more doesn't really help.
It will be just sitting there.

ok, thanks. I just wondered if anyone else had bought 2 x (2x16) 32gb corsair memory kits instead of 1x (4 x16) 64gb corsair memory kits and whether it had worked for them.
