I have a gigabyte b450 ds3h ram and team t force 8x2 3000 mhz ram. I've updated the latest bios and need advice on how to increase the RAM speed to 3200mhz. The rest of my system specs are: R5 2600, gtx 1660 super, 450w evga br psu, 240gb kingston a400, 1tb seagate hdd, masterboxq300l, gigabyte ds3h b450, team t force vulcan 8x2 3000mhz c 16. Should I overclock for a few extra frames in games? I mainly play GTA, R6S, and CSGO, and plan to get a 144hz monitor, so I want to boost performance slightly.

Personally, I think gaming FPS performance gains will be buried in 'margin of error' by raising memory clock up only 200 Mtps (remember, it's DDR so it's actually 100 Mhz). But there is a certain sense of satisfaction knowing it's tweaked and tuned, so if you want to try I'd get 1Usmus' Ryzen DRAM Calculator tool to help you sort out what timings will need altering, and how much, to make it stable. HardwareUnboxed shows you how to use it (below). He's doing it on a Ryzen 2nd gen but the tool also works for Ryzen 2000 CPU's just as well.

Do you believe purchasing that item would be a better choice? The item was meant to be sent out today, but the order was canceled, so I'm considering buying two of them.

I really believe adding more RAM won't significantly improve performance.
Changing a few display settings might lead to better FPS gains instead.

I assume the resolution is 1080p. You won't achieve 144+FPS in every game with that setup, no matter how much you boost your RAM. Older titles like CSGO should run smoothly at 144+FPS, but newer games won't. You'll need a more powerful GPU. Still, you can approach around 100 FPS by tweaking your GPU and CPU settings. By the way, I don't suggest overclocking with your existing 450W power supply—it's just sufficient for normal operation.

Only worthwhile at 3200mhz if you maintain the same cas latency.

Based on my own experience with the r5 2600, increasing the RAM from 3000 to 3200 didn’t make a difference. Perhaps a small boost around 1 or 2% in the 1% and 0.1% ranges would help, but that’s about it. Nothing would be necessary for. I think it doesn’t really justify raising speeds until 3600.

Ram operates at an incredibly fast pace, making the gap between 3000 and 3200 seconds almost imperceptible in everyday use. You could notice slight improvements of 1-3 frames per second thanks to Ryzen features, but these changes would be hard to see in real-time gameplay. Visually, any difference would only become clear during precise benchmark tests with exact metrics like maximum, low percentages, etc.
