[SOLVED] Corsair Vengeance LPX 16gb 3200 c16 vs 3600 c18

[forgetfulzee]

I am planning to get a Ryzen 5 3600 or 3600x with a MSI B450 Gaming Pro Carbon mobo and a RTX 2070 Super. I've seen a lot of posts recommeding Vengeance LPX 16gb 3200 c16 as sweet spot but is the 3600 c18 better for gaming and will the mobo run it? Here in the Philippines the 3600 c18 is readily available and the 3200 c16 I have to order through amazon. TIA

The motherboard spec says 3466mhz is the max supported, are you sure? https://www.msi.com/Motherboard/B450-GAMING-PRO-CARBON-AC/Specification

Update BIOS to AGESA 1004b, it should run full speed.
