i would like upgrade my ram from 16gigs to 32gigs.
Looking at these:
www.overclockers.co.uk

Team Group Vulcan Z T-Force 32GB (2x16GB) DDR4 PC4-25600C16 3200MHz Dual Channel Kit - Grey | OcUK

Order Team Group Vulcan Z T-Force 32GB (2x16GB) DDR4 PC4-25600C16 3200MHz Dual Channel Kit - Grey now online and benefit from fast delivery.

My current specs:
Windows 10 Pro 64bit
3.40 GHz AMD Ryzen 5 2600 Six-Core Processor
16.0 GB DDR4 Ram

MSI B450I GAMING PLUS AC (Socket AM4) Mini-ITX Motherboard

Nvidia GeForce GTX 1060 6GB GPU

32" 2560 x 1440 LCD monitor
Lazer3D LZ7 Mini-ITX Case

My motherboard says that the two RAM slots support up to 32 GB DDR4-RAM clocked at up to 2.933 MHz and this can be increased via OC to up to 3.200 MHz.

Am I on the right track with the 2x16gb-ddr4-pc4-25600c16-3200mhz-dual-channel-kit I've chosen?

Many thx
 
Very unlikely you'll get that kind of speed with 4 sticks on Zen+, just FYI. 2933 possibly, but might need to be clocked a little lower.
 
Seems that one now needs at least a thousand posts to gain access to the old members market...
 
Case cleaned ram installed power up press F2...but oh no my wireless keyboard's dead as a duck...=) I knew I shouldn't have thrown my old USB one away...
 
All my so called "mates" :D mainly use laptops & Ipads etc)
I'll most prob buy a cheapo one tomorrow moving forwards... :)

 
My local estate agent had a spare keyboard thank god :) . Pressed F2 and all good/ram recognised/Win/wireless key all working.
Thanks mickyflinn
Your welcome.

Have you Checked its running at the correct speed 3200mhz ? Normally have to set it using xmp profile in the bios
 
video/photography

Any future upgrades planned/contomplated ?
Well I recently purchased a 1T external SSD for storage of video/photos etc (want to try my hand at aerial video/aerial photography/waiting for DJI mini3 pro drone to arrive). I am considering a gpu upgrade as some point but need to do a bit more research on the subject/see what's out there etc
