I always suggest replacing RAM rather than trying to add to.
ryzen would love the extra speed faster modules will provide. do not try to overclock the modules get the target speed and use the XMP profiles to enable their full speed.

I would just get a 2x8GB 3000-3200Mhz kit if you don't think you will need more than 16GB on this current computer. If you do need more ram you will be limited to 2933/3000Mhz with 4 modules installed when using Ryzen 2000. Keep the old memory as backup, or if you don't mind the slower 2666Mhz, you could run 24GB.
