There's no point for an x370 unless you want to overclock.

So if i do I should? I will use a hyper 212 if so instead of the base cooler.

B350 is good enough for Ryzen 5 and 3 overclocking, but for Ryzen 7 oveclocking better get X370 to make sure the VRMs last longer.

https://pcpartpicker.com/product/fPDzK8/asus-prime-b350-plus-atx-am4-motherboard-prime-b350-plus - This is looking good right now. $20 MIR - $59.99USD at Newegg. It'd be perfect for a Ryzen 5 1600 and not too bad at overclocking either. It has LLC capabilities and the ability to modify SOC Voltage, both in the bios. Nice features that my board sadly lacks.

Should I keep 3000mhz ram or downgrade since the max is 2666?

2666 is the limit imposed by Ryzen. Overclocking is still possible as with any board. Your ram should work just fine (perhaps after a bios update).
