Yes, 3600MHz RAM should work with this build.
Hello, your recent PC purchase is a good start. You’re planning to upgrade from 16GB at 3200MHz to 32GB at 3600MHz. Check if your motherboard and CPU support those speeds. Your model (RTX 2060, 6GB, Ryzen 7 2700X Prime B450m-a) should work with the new RAM, but confirm compatibility with the motherboard and processor specifications.
Officially the CPU handles up to 2933 MT/s. In real scenarios you might achieve that rate using XMP (auto-overclock), which you've already applied for your existing RAM. The motherboard lists support for memory overclocks (O.C) up to 4000 MT/s. Although it doesn't explicitly state 3600 MT/s, it should accommodate it. In the worst scenario you might need to run it at slightly reduced speeds, but the performance jump between 3200 MT/s and 3600 MT/s is negligible. It would probably be more economical and the practical difference in speed is insignificant.
