CPU: i5 12400F
Motherboard: MSI PRO H610M-E
I understand that RAM speed is capped at a maximum of 3200 Mhz on the H610 chipset.
I can install 32GB DDR4 3600 at a lower cost compared to 32GB DDR4 3200.
In theory, 3600 Mhz RAM should function perfectly at 3200 Mhz.
Has anyone tried this before and confirmed it?
Will the system post, or do I need to manually tweak the frequency and latencies?

MSI motherboards may be unstable but should work at reduced speeds. 3200mhz, DDR4.
