You might cut costs by using the same unit, otherwise spending an additional 20 dollars for extra wattage won't cause any issues. That sounds much more favorable—it requires six 6.3-megapixels doubled with the ISL6617, so it's a better option if you're restricted to these components.
If you're new to OC and unsure about the benefits of adding more RAM, consider whether it truly speeds things up for your specific needs. It might be worth it if you experience noticeable performance gains, but otherwise it could add cost without significant return.
Uncertain about your exact question. However, manually increasing clock speed isn't recommended for Ryzen; using pre-set XMP profiles is usually better. For kits rated at 3600 MHz, manual overclocking isn't necessary—just enable XMP.
I question if a six-core setup isn't sufficient for gaming, while upgrading the GPU would offer greater advantages. Future-proofing doesn't really matter here.
