So I've been playing around with RAM speeds to see what effect they have on performance on my 3700X. This is all at stock frequencies on the CPU and I didn't adjust timings or voltages for the RAM, just the speed on FCLK where necessary.
MSI X570 A-Pro
Ryzen 7 3700x with Wraith Prism cooler
16GB Corsair Vengeance RGB Pro
GTX 1070
Latest drivers
Windows 10 2004 (19041.630)
HP m.2 NVME
MSI Dragon Center set to Extreme performance
All fans on maximum to prevent temps being an issue. (3 x 120mm front intakes, 1 x 120mm rear exhaust, 1 x 120mm top exhaust).
I left the system as it is when it boots, to get real-world data as this is how I use the PC daily.

As you can see, there are a few odd results I did retest the outliers and the results were repeated, so not sure what's causing that, but there you go.
