Question I'm having trouble reaching 3200MHz RAM speed ?

[AshTree]

I have 4 sticks of Corsair Vengeance 8GB DDR4 RAM advertised as 3200MHz, but Speccy lists my DRAM frequency as 1596.8 MHz.
I have a Gigabyte B550M DSH3 motherboard and a Ryzen 7 3700X CPU
How do I reach 3200MHz?

The place that advertised it erroneously reported the transfer rate as the operating clock speed of RAM. DDR4-3200 operates at 1600MHz. A data transfer happens on the rising and falling edge of the clock cycle.

So there's no problem here.

It's reporting operating speed. You just have to double the figure. 1596.8 MHz x2 is ~3200, normal for DDR4-3200.
