What cpu?My own personal experience with X370 is gonna say hard NO at being able to run it at 3600 speeds, but maybe you'll be luckier than I was.

Ryzen 1700 and then later on a 3900XWhat cpu?
Ryzen 1700 and then later on a 3900X
I could never get the RAM stable past 3000 with 4 sticks. Updates and moving to the 3900X helped stability a lot and definitely allowed me to use better/more ram than things were at launch, but there were limits that my AsRock X370 Gaming K4 never got past.
Same RAM and processor when I upgraded to X570 worked as simply as hitting XMP and it was instantly stable at 3200 with no tweaking. (I had 48GB back then, I have 64GB now.)
I've had no issues with 3200mhz on either of my Ryzen 1XXX systems, one is even using cheap ram. I'm not pushing the envelope with 4 sticks or large capacities though, 16gb. My workloads might use 32gb, but anything more than that would be underutilized, I expect. Will have some soul searching to do as to whether I buy the 3600mhz out of the gate.Ryzen 1700 and then later on a 3900X

That's likely that I'll do. I will need another ram kit thoI run my cas 14 3200hhz ram at 3600 cas 15 and it will also do 3800 cas 16 with my 5900x.
You should test with your existing ram first to see how your board cpu combo handles higher IF clocks. Very good chance you can easily hit 3600 cas 16 if you have b die. Start with relaxes timings to rule out ram being the limiting factor and tighten from there. I ran a 3900x on an x370 for a while but my vrm melted...
Yeah, but it was the *only* X370 board that I could get at launch, and these issues were fairly specific to the board IIRC.In fairness, I never had good luck with the Gaming K4 boards and memory compatibility. It was significantly worse than the Asus Crosshair Hero and Strix boards I used when it came to memory speeds and compatibility with Zen+ CPUs (I think I was using a 2600X at the time with FlareX memory).
yep. i'd look at some crucial ballistix. ryzen loves micron e-die ... anyway, that's what i'm running with my ryzen 3800X got some ballistix 3200 OC'd to 3666 using Ryzen DRAM Calc settings. i was an early adopter and didin't know at the time i needed 3600 ram but it all worked out. been rock solid for a couple years now. edit: ASUS TUF X570It's not the RAM speed I'm trying to increase. The cpu literally is faster with higher clocked ram. It's internally built into and specific to Ryzen and their implementation of Infinity fabric. 3600mhz is the sweet spot.

No it was an Asus x370 prime pro. It should have been fine since I wasn't overclocking but the board had been used 24/7 for several years with full load so maybe it got tired and didn't like the extra TDPasrock?
That's been the stated plan since the first post. But why pay extra for ram unlikely to work.Why not but the fastest ram you can afford and put it at the speed you find most stable?
Ram?I was pushing the 12nm Ryzen 5 1600 AF to 3600Mhz on B350 but it was not stable in XMP 2 http://www.3dmark.com/fs/21479515
It was very stable in XMP 1 http://www.3dmark.com/fs/21537094 and how I left it as it' my daughter's PC
