RAM 3200mhz and Motherboard for Ryzen 5 3600
I literally built a PC with parts around that price range, so I'll just recommend what I got.
Motherboard: MSI B450 Tomahawk. Great VRM's which are waaaaay more than enough for the 3600. Maybe wait a bit for the MAX version of the board with the better BIOS. Also has a "BIOS Flashback" feature which allows you to update the BIOS without needing to have a CPU installed. Great board overall, but the onboard audio leaves a lot to be desired, as it doesn't get very loud and is actually a step down from the original B350 Tomahawk.
RAM: Corsair, G.Skill, or Team Group. 2x8GB 3200 MHz. Lowest CAS Latency possible in your price range. The kit that I got is Vengeance Pro RGB 2x8GB 3200 MHz C16 and works perfectly.
Also, as a sidenote, I'd recommend getting a nice tower cooler or some form of upgraded cooling for the CPU as the Wraith Stealth included with the 3600 is good but not great. Something like a BeQuiet Pure Rock Slim, Cryorig H7, or Cooler Master Hyper 212 Black Edition.
