does ASUS EX-A320M gaming support 3200mhz ram?

YES and here is the QVL: https://dlcdnets.asus.com/pub/ASUS/mb/SocketAM4/EX-A320M-GAMING/EX-A320M-GAMING_Memory_QVL.pdf

If you have Ryzen or Athlon with Vega, then yes.
If it's any other Athlon, no.

This is still correct.

2666MHz is the max native frequency. So when you put in RAM, it can run up to 2666MHz without needing to "overclock" the RAM in the BIOS. 3200 is the RAM speed it can run once you set it to do so in the BIOS.

Don't worry about this, people think RAM overclocking in this sense (XMP/DOCP) is risky, it's not, any RAM above 2666 (usually) needs to be set as such in the BIOS. Everyone running 3200 RAM has had to tell the BIOS to run it at that speed, and it is a simple - usually drop down box - setting in the BIOS.

The OC text you see next to the RAM speeds above are telling you which are native speeds and which are higher profile speeds.
