Folks here have recommended the G-Skill RAM with CL40 for the AMD boards, but I'm curious if anyone's tried the slightly slower version with CL46 -- the 64GB kit (F5-5600S4645A32GX2-RS) is currently available for $163 vs. $175 for the faster kit. Or am I missing some compatibility issue?

I've seen it around, should be fine I think

It's a negligible difference in most applications from what I've heard. I got CL 46 crucial kit.

should be fine considering the crucial cl46 kit works

46 should work perfectly fine, Frameworks memory is 46, too, if I'm not mistaken.

It is, or at least mine is. The Framework memory on my 7840U mainboard (2x16 GB DDR5-5600) is manufactured by A-Data, has SK Hynix RAM chips, and is CL46. The date code is 23/32 (August 2023). Info as reported by CPU-Z, using the SPD info from the sticks.
