Hi, currently I have
Asus tuf B660m-plus-D4 with 4 slot ram support dual channel 128gb ram max
- Intel i7 12700 support dual channel 128gb ram max

Right now I have Corsair Vengeance 2x16 DDR4 3200mhz active dual channel slot 2,4

So if I bought next 2x16 DDR4 3200mhz Corsair Vengeance for slot 1,3 to become 4x16 DDR4 3200mhz Corsair Vengeance , it still active dual channel and not downgrade performance ? I always play game and edit video

Not really going to downgrade performance. BUTTTT the bad thing is it's a gamble if it will even work with the old ram.

The same model don't even mean it was made with the same parts.

Your better off selling your memory and buying the amount in a single package matched set that has been...

Your better off selling your memory and buying the amount in a single package matched set that has been tested to work together.

Ok I got it , so it's better to buy 2x32gb 1 set instead 4x16 1 set right ?

When you run your stuff are you using all the ram you have now?

If not then adding more ram won't help.
