RAM Upgrade on a Gigabyte Aorus B450 Elite

[jwink86]

Afternoon all,

Looking for some upgrade advice regarding my current setup. The specs are as follows

Motherboard = https://www.overclockers.co.uk/giga...ocket-am4-ddr4-atx-motherboard-mb-574-gi.html
CPU = https://www.overclockers.co.uk/amd-...hz-socket-am4-processor-retail-cp-3b7-am.html
Current RAM = https://www.overclockers.co.uk/team...-3200mhz-dual-channel-kit-grey-my-0aj-tg.html

I'm looking for some RGB goodness and was hoping to pick up up a nice set of some CL16 fast RAM (2 x 16GB).
(https://www.gskill.com/product/165/166/1562839659/F4-3600C16D-32GTZR)

Can anyone confirm once and for all if this will work with my current setup? I have checked my motherboard manual and can confirm that it does in fact support 3600Mhz RAM. I cannot however find the above RAM on the QVL. I have contacted Gigabyte and they were unable to give any specific advice and have asked me to check the QVL.

Does anyone have this setup that can confirm working?

Or should I discard the idea of RGB and go with https://www.overclockers.co.uk/team...00c16-3600mhz-dual-channel-kit-my-002-8p.html ?

Any help is appreciated.

Thanks all, yes I was thinking that the performance increase may not be worth it but was lured in by the promise of the faster RAM in speed and the RGB goodness of course.

I had read that official CPU specs only support up to 3200MHz but assumed this was like most where this is the recommended supported limit and anything beyond this mean you are on your own.

Cheers for your input, I'm sure ill be back again soon.
