I got my very first gaming pc ever and would like to upgrade 16gb to 32gb RAM. I would like to point out that it is prebuilt. Below are the specs and the pc itself.
Intel i7-12700KF - 16GB DDR4 Memory - NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3080 - 1TB NVMe SSD

It looks like upgrading your ram is a matter of just buying more ram sticks? I currently have two in my pc right now (the 16gb).
My first question is when i buy 32gb do i have to remove the sticks in now and replace or can i keep them all in?
My second question is should i stay with the same brand of the ram sticks that came with the pc? (it looks like its called t-force)
My third is am i able to just switch to 32gb? How can i tell my pc can handle this?
I already know these questions are so dumb but I need help bad and have no one to help me other than the internet.
PS: would the below link be appropriate to buy? These cards look just like the one i have in now but idk how to make sure they are exactly the same so nothing goes wrong :/
