Mobo: Gigbyte B450 Gaming X
CPU: AMD Ryzen 5 3600
Ram: Corsair Vengeance LPX DDR4 @3200mhx (2x8gb)
My system is used for gaming mostly. The ram runs at 2133mhz. I looked this up originally and was told to enable xmp. After doing so, I had to clear cmos to get the system to post, resetting the ram back to 2133mhz. (Pretty sure I later learned it like an Intel technology or something idk lol) Upon further research I found my ram, down to the module part number on the memory support list for matisse cpus for my mobo (https://www.gigabyte.com/ie/Motherboard/B450-Gaming-X-rev-10/support#support-doc CMK16GX4M2B3200C16 ) I notice this has timings/voltage etc.
My questions:
1: What are the advantages and disadvantages to running ram at higher speed?
2: Is it worth it for gaming/ worth any possible risks?
3: How would i go about doing it? (Matching the timings/voltage/speed listed on mobo support list to my bios? )
