Is this a suitable setup for the year 2020? Am I overlooking anything important?

Crucial offers reliable products.
3200MHz DDR4 is acceptable, particularly when used with Intel systems which are less sensitive to memory rates compared to AMD configurations.
System performance is limited by RAM speed only when utilizing top-tier hardware.
Typically, the primary constraint is either the graphics card, processor, or the volume of memory installed.

I believe Intel is a preferable choice for your display and graphics card pairing. I personally selected 32GB in dual 16GB sticks, though my testing indicates that quadrupling the memory to 32GB might yield marginally improved frame rates. Furthermore, I’ve discovered that achieving optimal performance speeds with increased RAM can sometimes present compatibility challenges.

High-speed DDR4 with a 3200MHz clock speed is excellent.
