Awhile back I bought from OC

Lexar Hades 16GB (2x8GB) DDR4 PC4-28800C18 3600MHz Dual/Quad Channel Kit (LD4BU008G-R3600GD0H)​

I now want to suppliment these to get 32gb but they are no longer available, are these compatible please?:

I'm guessing you have an AM4 setup? You maybe better off selling your current ram and buying 2 new sticks of 32GB RAM as sometimes 4 sticks of ram can be a pain to make them work at 3600MHz.

What do you mean by compatible?

If you mean, can I just plug in all 4 and everything works fine with one-click XMP, that's unlikely, but your chances are better with the most recent DDR4 CPUs/motherboards.

If you have a Ryzen 5000 CPU, then 4 sticks (especially single rank, which I'd expect of 8GB) can usually run comfortably, but you may have to lower frequency or bump up voltages. The official spec for 4 single rank sticks on these CPUs is 2933.
