Can Replacing My RAM Affect My CPU Overclock?

[joey.5]

Hi, first post on here because i'm looking for an answer i'm struggling to find and was hoping i'd get it here.

My question is what is in the title.

I'm planning on getting new RAM with RGB of course to fit the style of my pc, and when doing this i'm also going to up the Mhz to my motherboards (B350 Tomahawk) max which is 3200Mhz. Currently I have a stable OC on my Ryzen 5 1600 at 4Ghz 1.300 volts. And my current RAM is 2400Mhz. Would me upgrading my RAM up to 3200Mhz (From 2400) affect my overclock at all? And if so should i set the clocks back to default and work my way back up?

Thanks, I'd appreciate any help and clear this up for me.

Ryzen benefits greatly from faster ram, so yes you would be able to achieve some higher speeds

Thanks for the quick response.

Should i start over regardless just incase it becomes unstable?

Yeah you wanna start blank and default and just increase the clocks incrementally on both.
