So im about to build a new PC, my 1st, i plan on buying a Ryzen 5 2600X ( https://www.amd.com/en/products/cpu/amd-ryzen-5-2600x )
The thing is that i want to pair it with 16GB, 3200mhz of ram, the specs of the CPU say that the system memory is 2933 mhz, from what i know (which is not much) the motherboard dictates the maximum speed at which ram runs, i have read a few forums and they confused me more than helping.
They claimed that the ram will be reduced to the 2933 mhz, i also saw something about overclocking, as in its possible to use the full extent of the ram even if exceeds the specified limit.
Again from what i know the motherboard is responsible for what the ram does i just dont know/understand what that 2933mhz of the CPU means.
