Question Adding additional sticks of RAM - XMP/DOCP results ?

[PatientGamer]

I am currently running 16gb of TeamGroup DDR4 3600. I recently purchase this RAM when my old Corsair 3000 became unstable. I was pleasantly surprised when the DOCP profile running at 3600 just worked with no tweaking. My old RAM could never even hit exactly 3000 without issues on my old B350 board.

I am considering picking up another 2 8gb sticks of the same TeamGroup 3600 to populate all four slots of my board. My question is will adding additional sticks of RAM likely cause issues hitting the advertised DOCP profile speed of 3600? I am happy with the performance I am getting and trying to weigh that against the worst case of the RAM only running at the JDEC speed or something with all 4 sticks. It's been many years since I had four sticks of RAM in a system but DDR4 is quite cheap at the moment. I can upgrade for about $35~

This may well depend on your motherboard and CPU brand. It is not uncommon for 4 sticks to require more than the mobo can deliver for voltage and so forth, and AMD are VERY picky about having matched RAM.

Which Asus MB and CPU, most CPUs can't run memory at high speeds with all 4 sticks because it overloads memory controller. With Ryzen only 5000 series on b550/x570 MBs. Another possible problem is using 2 different memory kits even when identical.
