What RAM are you running with your Ryzen 5 1600 (and hopefully Asus ROG Strix B350-F)

So you're saying they have more options, but only one they sell is on your board's QVL? If that's the case, you may be able to purchase something not on QVL and have it work just fine (better chance with updated bios). Ryzen works best with a single kit of 16GB (2x8GB) Single Rank containing Samsung B-Die chips. Most likely, for 3200MHz, you'll see kits containing B-Die as having a CAS Latency of 14. Example: F4-3200C14D-16GTZ. They'll also be expensive as hell because of their demand for Ryzen systems and ability to be overclocked nicely.
For the record, however, I use a G.Skill 3000MHz rated kit containing Hynix M-Die chips overclocked to 3200. It's timings are nowhere near as good as Samsung B-Die can achieve, but with a bios update, my board uses it without any serious problems. f4-3000c15d-16gvkb
I'll give you two URLs I use to cross reference model numbers with to see if it's known what chips are used. They mostly contain the same information, but the comments may contain new info.
