When it says OC next to a memory speed, does that mean:
-You can't use this speed memory without overclocking your CPU?
-You can't overclock your CPU without this speed memory?
-Or something else entirely?
My apologies, it's been quite a while since I last built a computer

It means the motherboard is "guaranteed" to run ram at those speeds (if they're compatible). of course you can run slower ram (as long as it's ddr4, dd3l)

It means officially AMD's chipset doesn't support anything over 2400 or 2667mhz RAM (2667mhz is only with some CPUs).
If you have 3200Mhz RAM, you'll have to overclock in the motherboard in order to get those settings.
This is ONLY talking about the RAM here. This isn't the 90's anymore, RAM and CPU OCing can be done independently.
You CAN OC the CPU too, but nothing would require you to.

The memory speed isn't officially supported, and requires effectively overclocking the memory controller.

Yeah I think it means
>WE support these speeds but they're in the Advanced menu
due to what >>61403496 mentioned about upstream "official support"
