Hey there, I'm sharing what I've discovered about my setup. I have a Ryzen 5 2600 with a 2600 MHz processor, a B450M-Pro chipset, and 2x4GB of DDR3 RAM (overclocked to 2933 MHz C14). The memory is Nanya chipsets, and so far everything has worked well—no major issues. I only use the PC for gaming, media, and word processing, so multitasking isn't a big factor. I noticed some people mention similar setups with different RAM brands but matching clock speeds, and they didn't encounter any problems. If I were to upgrade later, adding two sticks from different manufacturers with comparable timing would be fine. I've also tested running an FX-8320 with two GeIL and Crucial modules that matched in speed for years without trouble. Let me know if you need more details!

The Ryzen 2000 series demands precise RAM configuration, but you seem capable of adjusting settings yourself. Still, it might be worth upgrading to a 2x8 3000MHz system instead of sticking with your current setup.
