Can I use 3600MHz RAM with Ryzen 3 3100? My motherboard is B550M PRO VDH WİFİ.  I will buy HyperX 3600MHz CL17 (Hynix CJR)

It wont handle 3600mhz, the maximum is 3200mhz.. but you can still use the RAM because it will just clock down to 3200mhz. i'd rather safe money and buy a 3200mhz one though..

Yes, you techincally can. The 3100 shouldn't have a problem with running the sticks at 3600 MT/s.

This is simply false, the IMC is rated for 3200 MT/s, but you can run higher speeds, they're just not techincally guaranteed to be stable. Though 3600 isn't really hard to achieve with a Zen 2  CPU.

ah yes, you are right, i forgot. You can actually tweak the cpu to run 3600mhz on the ram.. you'd have to be pretty lucky

No, no you absolutely do not, running 3600 MT/s stably on a Zen 2 CPU is a perfectly normal thing and is not shocking and/or difficult to do.

Oh? I found it difficult to clock my ram to 3000mhz on my 3 3100 and it wouldnt even be stable at 2666mhz so i just set it to 2133mhz.. honestly probably because of my poor oc skills but still..

This is an excellent frequency for working memory, the higher the better :)
