Worth upgrading mobo and RAM for my CPU

Ryzen 1600AF. Currently using a Gigabyte A320M mobo and 16GB of DDR4 2400. Do you think going for something based on B450 and upgrading to 3600 DDR4 would be a worthwhile difference?

I'm happy enough with my current setup, but the A320 offers next to nothing in terms of tweaking and anything I can change just causes immediate system instability. I can't even use XMP on the RAM without it crashing games.

However, I play 1080p and everything works fine at stock and performance is fine. Just wondering if changing the mobo and RAM would give a worthwhile performance boost...or nothing to write home about.

Thoughts?
