I got a asus strix x570-e MB and ordered g skill trident z neo 32 gb(2x16) for 3600
F4-3600C16D-32 GTZNC
Question is. I accidentally ordered 2 sets of the memory . Can I put 4 sticks of this kind together to get 64 gb or are these 2 sticks specific.

You should be able to install all 4 sticks of memory. No worries.

Hello Derrek, how was it? Did it work? I got the same memory F4-3600C16D-32GTZNC. I am planning to buy another set just in case it will work. :)

When you install the sticks, make sure to install them together in a proper dual channel configuration:

For example, let's take the first pack of RAM. Those sticks should go in the 1st and 3rd slots. The other set should go in the 2nd and 4th slots. Correct me if i'm wrong

No, this is correct.
most motherboard's manuals also show the best optimized RAM config for single, dual, and quad sticks
1st pack of 2 in DIMMA1 and B1, 2nd pack in DIMMA2 and B2
