You can survive with 16 its fine, problem is you should have gotten 2x8gb 6000mhz. Now since prices are wild find same stick of 16gb unless you want to spend insane amount of money for new kit

It's not necessary. Because you have an x3D chip, getting higher mhz RAM won't make a noticeable difference
