If you want to run the memory at 3000 MHz, just make sure the XMP profile is enabled in the BIOS, that should be all you need to do. If you want to manually overclock the RAM to 3200 MHz, just know that there's no guarantee that'll work. But if you want to try, I think you should be able to find some advice by googling for a Ryzen memory overclocking guide. Even guides for overclocking on other platforms should have relevant information.

If you want RAM that's guaranteed to work, you should have got something from the motherboard QVL RAM list.

It's troubling that none of the RAM on that list is listed as being supported at speeds greater than 2400 MHz. But ultimately the only way to know for sure would be to enable the XMP profile and see if it's stable.
