cpu https://www.newegg.ca/amd-ryzen-5-3600x/p/N82E16819113568
ram https://www.newegg.ca/g-skill-16gb-288-pin-ddr4-sdram/p/N82E16820231941
MB https://www.newegg.ca/msi-arsenal-gaming-b450-tomahawk/p/N82E16813144189
I will be playing at 1080p and will upgrade my 60Hz monitor in the near future to a 144hz 1080p (https://www.amazon.ca/dp/B075KFPJ5C...olid=2A7UNZRIL99RD&psc=1&ref_=lv_ov_lig_dp_it).
I'm just wondering about the compatibility of these products. I know that I'll need a BIOS update for that motherboard but I will have to learn how to do that. Also, how important is RAM speed? I heard it's important for ryzen but can't be bothered to learn about latency, timings etc. Too complicated xD. So would 3200 ram be good w/o messing with stuff? I heard any lower seriously impacts ryzen performance.
Thanks!
