2400mhz ram ouch. If you are going to upgrade to Ryzen 5 3600 after Ryzen 4000 aka Zen 3 launch, then you will need to upgrade your RAM to at least minimum 3200mhz speed. Ryzen 3000 love fast speed ram.
I can overclock it, but don't do it because the gain is minimal here, already try it. It's corsair with good CL, but I don't have the patience to set times and everything else.

And no, not for now, it is very expensive because Brazil's currency is extremely depreciated (almost every tech thing is imported) and I don't feel any need for it. In the future maybe upgrade the processor, GPU and motherboard, but I still don't have money for it. My focus now is on buying a new laptop to work on it.

Furthermore, 4/8 CPU is still handling every game that I have.

Today exchange from Brazil's Real to American Dollar, 2x8 (16GB) RAM Corsair Vengeance LPX CL16 3200Mhz: US$ 153,04 in cash on the cheapest store.

20 gb ram nice .
Try to set the ram frequency closer to the infinity fabric frequently to reduce latency and increase bandwidth by over clocking the ram .
And try primo cache to have better caching on your HDD with SSD plus ram as cache.

What is primocache? Never heard of it.

Worth it?

Had to uninstall KIS from my android phone since it's causing a lot of lags and being a battery hog.

I need the anti theft, web and real time protection. So I installed Bitdefender Mobile Security on it.

I'm trying Bitdefender Yonly too and seems to be a very fast VPN, I like it.

From what I can understand from their very vague marketing Yonly is an encrypted DNS with malware, IP, ad, and tracker filtering?
