Question The 4x16 memory kit I plan to purchase for my motherboard is not listed in the QVL, but a 2x16 kit with same specs is. Is this worth worrying about?

I'm going to be upgrading to a DDR5 build soon and the motherboard I want to use for it is the B650M AORUS ELITE AX with this 4x16 memory kit from Corsair (SKU CMT64GX5M4B5600Z36). I checked the QVL, and the SKU for that kit isn't listed, but the similar 2x16 kit (SKU CMT32GX5M2B5600Z36) with same specs of 5600MT/s C36 is there.

I know that QVLs are non-exhaustive but my question for those of you who are more familiar with them is whether I run any risk worth worrying about when a similar kit with 2 16GB DIMMs instead of the 4 that I want are listed. Thanks!

They're a difference in running 4 sticks VS 2 sticks on a AMD board, if you need 64GB I would buy a 2X32GB set.
