After lot of research I think it is compatible. but I just need an expert to tell me. (coz I'm spending lot of money here. )

The ssd should fit.

Ram....what's in the machine now?
It's hit and miss when you mix ram sticks.
Run this scanner and see what it says.

Hey thanks for replying

Currently I have 8GB, DDR4 2666 MHz. Manufacturer : SK Hynix
&
I'm not mixing RAMs. I'm gonna remove existing one & add 2x16GB Sticks

I ran Crucial System Scanner it's showing: 3200MHz is compatible. I don't know how accurate is it ( https://www.crucial.com/scanview/863FCB1F31D926C3 ).

What should I do ?,

What are you trying to do with the ram?
Do you just want more ram?
Trying to get dual channel?

Not many users need more than 16GB of ram.
If your sure you need more go with a 32GB kit.
