[SOLVED] Does the ASRock b450m Pro 4 support 3600 ram?

No...but Yes.

3600 is not a 'stock' DDR4 speed for any Ryzen CPU. So it's an overclock and therefore dependent on the CPU's MMU silicon quality.

But yes since, with a capable CPU and your tenacity at tweaking the timings and voltages, it should do it. Ryzen 3000 CPU's are much more likely than any other generation to do it. Do not expect it with a 1st gen (1000 series CPU) or 1.5Gen (2000 series) without extensive tweaking and blessings from the silicon gods.

So with my Ryzen 5 2600x if I were to want to start up the system would it start up? Would I have to go into bios to fix it?

If your motherboard is a B450M Pro4 it would start right up with a 2600x...that board was made for 2000 series processors. But it will need a BIOS update to work with a 3600x.
