You're working with a budget PC using an AMD 3500X CPU. While the chip supports up to 3200 RAM, your sticks max out at 3600. You've used 3600 without issues, but you're curious about the impact. Changing the RAM limit can affect stability and performance, though it's generally not a major concern unless you're pushing the system to its limits.

3600mhz matches perfectly with infinity fabric at its peak stable rate. You'd experience about a 5% drop at 3200mhz.

Your CPU can run at 3600MHz while keeping the FCLK above 1800MHz, giving you improved performance compared to 3200MHz.

Reducing the pace doesn't increase efficiency.
