Memmory module dilemma

Hi there and thanks in advance for any advice and help.

 

I am building a new pc since my last is now 10 years old.

 

I've got a bit of a dilemma in which I have already purchased 2x16GB ram modules (Corsair Vengeance RGB PRO Black 32GB 3200 MHz - CMW32GX4M2C3200C16). The problem I have is the motherboard I originally had for these modules (MSI GAMING PLUS AMD X570) I am returning and now intend to purchase another (ASUS TUF Gaming X570-Plus). The ASUS TUF Gaming X570-Plus however doesn't list the memory on its QVL. It does however list a very similar part number CMW32GX4M2Z3200C16 which is sold as Corsair Vengeance RGB PRO Black 32GB 3200 MHz AMD Ryzen Tuned DDR4. I'm wondering if I should return what I have and swap it for the Ryzen Tuned or not worry and use what I have. I believe the one I have has a Samsung 5WB chipset but the Ryzen Tuned one has a Micron chipset. The specs on the manufacturers page (links provided) does show that they both have different SPD latency and speed not sure what this would mean though.

 

If anyone is interested the rest of my build is:

Ryzen 3700X

NZXT Kraken X62

ASUS TUF Gaming X570-Plus

Sapphire 5700XT Pulse

ADATA XPG SX8200 Pro 1TB M.2

FRACTAL DESIGN Meshify C (white)

EVGA 750 GQ (From old PC)

have you seen proof or just guessing? 3200MHz CL16 kits shouldn't have any Samsung B-die, if there is then it's basically Hynix level of garbage in terms of potential.

Just try it

bascially means they have or have not tested the SPD profile on Ryzen

I got that from the QVL of the MSI GAMING PLUS AMD X570 which lists the none Ryzen Tuned as Samsung and on the ASUS TUF Gaming X570-Plus  QVL it lists the Ryzen Tuned as Micron.

then MSI probably tested a super old or testing only kit from Corsair.
