RAM Diminishing Marginal Returns
It depends on the specific software and game, including what settings you're gonna be playing at. For the most part for games that tends to be 5600 being the point where it starts to level off a bit, but for some applications it scales upwards of 7000MT/s+, and some it just never matters. Simple rule of thumb is to look at the applications where the 5800X3D pulls ahead, if the 5800X3D is 10% or more faster than its other AM4 counterparts, get as fast RAM as your motherboard can support (I wouldn't expect anything faster than 6200MT/s to work in that board though), and if it's in line with the 5800X, 5600MT/s is more than adequate.
That said, any kit rated at 5600MT/s will be able to easily do 6000MT/s with a bit of overclocking, probably getting up usually getting up to 6200MT/s as well, so if you're willing to put in the bit of effort to do so, you can max that board out very easily with a 5600MT/s kit.
