As drea.drechsler explained, you'll need a B350 or AB350 motherboard or higher to overclock your APU (2400g's GPU) or CPU. If you're lucky, you might find an option to boost memory performance and adjust its timings. I don’t have much knowledge about the second generation of Ryzen, but for the first generation, the maximum safe memory clock was 2666 MHz (2800 was generally unstable on most boards). Therefore, it’s reasonable to guess that for the second generation, it would be around 2800, especially if your memory supports that speed. If your RAM is rated at 3200 MHz or higher, it should easily reach around 2800 with reduced timings. However, there might still be instability issues due to compatibility problems between first and second generation Ryzen chips. If your RAM is rated at 2133 or 2400, you’d likely need to increase the timings to achieve that level.

What is the motherboard model and are the UEFI/BIOS settings current?

If I'm correct, you shouldn't be able to increase the CPU or APU speeds on A320 chipset boards. But you can definitely boost memory performance, which is just as important for the I-GPU. The improvement will likely depend on the type of memory and what's running before you turn it on.

As drea.drechsler mentioned, you’ll need a B350 or AB350 motherboard or higher to successfully overclock your APU (2400g’s GPU) or CPU. If you’re lucky, there might be an option to boost memory performance and adjust its timings. I don’t have much experience with the second generation of Ryzen, but for the first generation, the maximum stable memory clock was around 2666 MHz (2800 was inconsistent on most boards). Therefore, it’s reasonable to guess that for the second gen, it should be about 2800, especially if your RAM supports that speed. If your RAM is rated at 3200 MHz or higher, it should easily reach around 2800 with slightly reduced timings. However, there could still be instability issues due to compatibility problems between first and second generation Ryzen chips. If your RAM is rated at 2133 or 2400, you might only achieve close to 2800 by increasing timings, which would likely reduce performance gains. The benefits from higher clock speeds usually outweigh the drawbacks of slower timings.
