Amazon sent me the wrong RAM. The CPU is rated up to DDR4-2933, but the Asus Z490-E motherboard is rated up to 4600. I previously had 3200 installed and it worked fine, but I'm not sure if 3600 is too high.

I wanted this:
DDR4 RAM 32GB (2x16GB) 3200MT/s CL16-18-18-38
And got this:DDR4 RAM 32GB (2x16GB) 3600MT/s CL18-22-22-42
If both will work and there won't be much difference, I'll keep the 3600. If the higher speed could cause issues or more heat then I'll return it. The PC is used almost exclusively for gaming. Everything is XMP 2.0 compatible.
