So I recently upgraded my PC and I am noticing that my system is not recognizing the 3200Mhz DDR4 as being 3200Mhz. Instead it sets the speed at 2133Mhz. I have researched as much as I could really without becoming annoyed and I am just honestly worried about setting anything in BIOS for fear of ruining my computer. I will provide a "before" and "after" upgrade specs.

BEFORE
i5-6500
EVGA 10606gb
12gb DDR4 2666mhz
250gb SSD
2TB HDD

AFTER:
Ryzen 5-3600
EVGA 1060 6gb
16GB DDR4 3200Mhz
250GB SSD
2 TB HDD

Should I adjust the settings in BIOS to match the packaged RAM speed or should I just leave it alone? I honestly feel like I should but I also feel that I will screw it up. Any help is amazing and appreciated!!
 
Solution
any RAM installed should initially default to these speeds.
you either need to enable an XMP profile provided for this make\model or set the manufacturer rated specs yourself. both would be done in the BIOS.
