(warning: I'm a noob at this)

I'm planning to buy a set of 2 x 16gb of GSkill Trident Z, the one with the cl16 (F4-3200C16D-32GTZ) for my X470 Taichi and plan to oc it to 3200mhz. My cpu is (going to be) Ryzen 2700x.

So my question is, can i actually get it to 3200Mhz? Because I read around the internet and found some posts that mentions the incompatibility with the cl16. Anyone tried this combination? Should I stay away from cl16 ram? Or should I just go for the 2400mhz ram? I don't have access to the c14 one at where I live. So that is out of the question.
 


I did check it on the mb qvl and did not find the one I mention, but the list state that they only got 1 model of GSkill to get to 3200 (2 x 4gb of F4-3200C16Q-16GRK), which is odd. Because I saw a lot of people on youtube and website get others model to get to 3200.

I am 90% sure that the ram won't get to 3200, but some people state that sometimes BIOS update fixed the issue. But i'm not planning to find it out the hard way.
