I currently have 16gb of this ram
https://www.newegg.com/g-skill-16gb-288-pin-ddr4-sdram/p/N82E16820232880?item=N82E16820232880

Looking to add two more sticks and unsure of compatibility of different ram sticks, should I just order same sticks or choose different model

Same sticks. always best to keep it the same.

if you like something different, order a 4x8 stick kit for best results.

What's the part number or serial number on all four RAM? I'm assuming you started off with two and then increased up to four. Just want to make sure you bought the right items.

Make sure it's showing the right speed and capacity in Task Manager or some other software.
