So, I have an APU Build equipped with Ryzen 5 3400g, 16GB DDR4 2400MHz RAM, and AsRock Fatal1ty AB350 Gaming K4 Motherboard. I do heavy Gaming and Photoshop on this machine. Have plans for a massive upgrade but starting with RAM.
I am willing to upgrade my RAM sticks to G.Skill Trident Z 16GB DDR4 3200MHz CL16 RAM. But, I am super confused if the motherboard, and the CPU Controller will allow me to use the 3200MHz speeds with XMP!?
Please help me out here guys! I am so tired of searching but not understanding anything!! Leaving this to you experts out there.

Here are the links for each product -
ASRock Fatal1ty AB350 Gaming K4 Motherboard
AMD Ryzen™ 5 3400G with Radeon™ RX Vega 11 Graphics
G.Skill Trident Z 16GB DDR4 3200MHz RGB Desktop RAM

It probably will use XMP but as usual no guarantee if not on supported RAM list..
 
Also depends on CPU internal memory controller capability.. however, no need to worry, as long as the memory is compatible, worst case you run them as high as the system can support. Say DDR4-3200 is not fully stable or requires additional Voltage increase, you should be able to run them at DDR4-3066 or 2933 without a problem.

Use the latest BIOS for best results.
