I was wondering if there is a cross over guide to match RAM. I have 32 gb of g.skill f3-1600c7d-16gtx and need 32 gb more. For some reseaon I am having trouble finding the same match and brand. (Except the high dollar ones from over seas) Is it possible to find another brand that matches the g.skill I have listed?

Not that I know of. FYI pairing memory modules that are not sold in kits in one package (2x, 4x, 6x, 8x) may cause problems. Even if they are of the same model. This is because memory makers may change chip vendors during different manufacturing cycles. Memory sold in kits are made in the same production cycle and are tested at the factory guaranteed to work together.

It's hit or miss mixing up memory of even the same model, let alone different brands even if they have the same specs. You might be better off selling your 32GB modules and buying 64GB. However do note that DDR3 is being phased out and getting harder and harder to find (and more expensive due to decreasing stock levels).
