My motherboard is Asus B360-G 

Processor is i5 9400f

Gpu Zotac RTX 2060

ram geil evo spear  4*2 2400mhz bus 

My question is my cpu is locked but what if i oc my ram will it benefit in multitasking?I know Ram speed dosent increase speed in intel platfrom.So should I go for it and my mobo can handle the OC?

B360 only lets you get to 2666MHz, so not like your system is the one for testing this theory in the first place. In some high frame rate or badly optimized games though it can make a difference if you can raise it from 2400MHz to say, 3200MHz.

Most likely very little to no real world improvement. You could try, it may make your system unstable though. I've had blue screens and weird random app crashes caused by OC ram.

 

Your multiplier is locked but what about your bus clock? It may introduce system instability but it will also give you some extra cpu juice. I wouldn't really recommend that since it could cause many problems, it may give you some extra performance, however.

For gaming purposes you should focus on OC the Graphics card and optimizing the OS environment. I bet you could achieve higher performance with a well optimized OS and driver settings than with a mild cpu or ram OC.
