It's fine? I suggest you find a set of videos on X570 motherboard reviews on YT. If I recall correctly, his opinion that anything below $200 are crap and above $300 are overpriced. What's the price difference between the 3600MHz and 3200MHz? I personally wouldn't go above 3000 or 3200 since the difference is little.

If that's the set of Patriots that I've seen posted elsewhere, they are really cheap for 3600MHz.

What power supply are you planning to use? The rest looks good though.

and the other RAM is a XPG Gaming D10 3200MHz 16GB $99.99

The power supply is a Corsair CP-9020177-NA RMX Series 550W

I would go with Seasonic Focus Gold Plus 550W for the same amount of money. That Corsair unit is built by CWT which doesn't have the same rep as Seasonic. RAM wise, I personally would put that $20 toward something else.
