I have 2 slots, with 8gb ram both of them, but is it possible to expand it to 4 and get 32gb ram 4x8?

I don't think so. You can upgrade your ram with the limited slots. 2x16 but check for compatibility.

expanding a ram slot is not a thing

#

you should get 2x16 if 32gb is the goal

i just thought, isn't 4x8 would perform better than 2x16

#

as they all different chips of memory and can operate parallel

and introduce latency

#

more channel means more latency
