Ryzen RAM - No 32GB (2x16GB) RAM on QVL ?

I'm looking into a new build to replace my 7 year old i7 and I'm stuck on the choice of RAM to accompany Ryzen 2700x. 

 

I already have 32GB on my old machine and I don't want to step down from it, going up would be a major cost, so I'd settle for 32GB of DDR3200. 

 

Looking at the QVL list here:

http://dlcdnet.asus.com/pub/ASUS/mb/SocketAM4/ROG_CROSSHAIR-VII-HERO/C7H-Memory-QVL-Ryzen-2nd-Generation-Processors.pdf

There are no 16GB DDR3200 modules on the list!

 

It's a deal-breaker for me as I can't work with 16GB of RAM.

 

Should I take this list with a grain of salt? Are there any 32GB (2x16) DDR3200 kits recommended for Ryzen? 

 

The cheapest one for me would be Ripjaws V, but that is Samsung D-die and apparently Ryzen doesn't like it. It's a pity because I even like the look of them, not that it's important.

Thanks!

 

I'm not sure that I understood the thread. Is it correct that the safest way is to get single-rank Samsung B-die memory?

 

I don't want to spend ages tweaking memory settings, my aim is to install them, load XMP profile and go :)

Are there no 32GB (2x16GB) DDR4-3200 kits/modules that work with Ryzen?

 

From what I've seen on the lists they're all 2x8GB modules, and I'd have to get 4 of them thus running them with 2T command rate vs 1T and having no upgrade path.
