Upgrading to 16gb ram, but ive noticed that the speed makes a difference for the price. It isnt much, but i could save £50. My point is that, i dont want to spend money if its unnecessary but i'm fully open to buy the 3200hz if its a big deal.
Using a Ryzen 5 2600, gtx 1060.

Ryzen is far more sensitive to RAM speeds than Intel. They say that the infinity fabric moves at the RAM speed. Benchmarks prove that faster ram (and DUAL CHANNEL) really helps Ryzen. Get at least 3000MHz RAM for your Ryzen Gamer.
