They also face challenges when increasing the speed to four dimmers. This is why the standard memory clock on many OEM systems runs much slower, since it's tied to a fixed configuration. It also explains why four-dimmer setups are very uncommon in OEM designs.

it wasn't always this way—my R5 3600 was limited to around 2933mhz, even after countless BIOS updates. The memory controller stayed the same, but the BIOS improved performance.

You're thinking about swapping out your motherboard because some of its SATA connections aren't functioning properly. I've looked into the BIOS settings and made sure everything is up to date.

Which board? A solid chance of failure if you have a top-tier GPU and M.2 slot. Many boards handle this issue too. Remember, BIOS updates can impact other components and also enhance CPU performance. It's not just about the motherboard.

I've got the ASRock Fatal1ty B450 Gaming K4. I have no M.2 installed in either slot, and only have my GTX 1060-6GB in the top slot. I'd like to note that, according to ASRock themselves, that those two SATA ports (SATA_3 and SATA_4) work regardless. Only SATA_5 and SATA_6 share bandwidth with the secondary M.2 and can be disabled in the BIOS. I haven't gotten around to upgrading my bootdrive to an M.2, as I don't need to yet. Also, I got the whole motherboard kit from an IT company for free, so yeah.

Going down to two sticks can greatly improve performance on that RAM. Speeds might reach 3000-3200. Running four sticks on AM4, particularly in older chips, tends to be quite challenging. Intel is facing similar problems with DDR5 on newer platforms, where it struggles to maintain high speeds when using four sticks

It doesn’t seem necessary to give up half your RAM for a modest speed boost. You still require the full 32768MiB for BeamNG.

It was clear I wasn't recommending keeping your existing sticks... Move to two sticks, acquiring ram to either align with or boost your storage capacity

You're thinking about improving your PC's performance by upgrading various components, which is great. Right now, RAM isn't the main focus, but it's definitely important.
