The only issue I did run into was that I was not aware that with some motherboards when switching out ram to a new kit, you might want to boot into the bios with one stick of the new ram first. Then adjust the settings to the new ram and reboot. Then you can add your second stick of ram.
I kept getting an endless boot cycle with no picture, when I first used both sticks of the new ram. So if you do run into any issues like this, turn your PC off and try the suggestion I mentioned above.

Well it's something on the motherboard that can't handle any decent OC on the ram once your go beyond two sticks, you should watch a good ol gamer video on it.
10% is so far out of the realm of possibility that I question where you're getting your info from. You're right that Ryzen likes "faster" RAM, as you'll see maybe a 5% decrease (from 3200) by running 2133mhz, the slowest you can get. Moving (or rather, initially choosing, since I still wouldn't say it's worth the money compared to other upgrades) from 2133 or 2666 to 3200+ makes sense. If you already have 3200, there are zero scenarios where it would be worth spending money on faster DDR4, outside of being a benchmark enthusiast who is going to be overclocking the RAM and FCLK, tweaking voltages, tightening timings, etc. so that obscure numbers on a bar graph get marginally higher.
At this stage of the game, forget DDR4 "upgrades". Put your $60 in a jar and save it for the actual upgrade to an AM5 system with DDR5. Then you might actually see a difference if you're running a raytraced game that actually cares about memory bandwidth.

I think your information is off about DDR4 speeds and 3rd gen Ryzen(5000series).
The infinity fabric sweet spot is 3600 CL16 per AMD. 3200 is fine, but is best at cl14.
Gamers Nexus did a video on this that showed there should be around a 10% FPS gain for most titles moving from CL16 3200 to CL16 3600. The corresponding article is linked below.

To me, spending $60 to gain 10% FPS which could save you a year before upgrading is a no brainer.

Anybody know what die is inside?
Has anybody had issues with XMP profiles?
I find that 32GB should be the minimum today. Not 16 like some people would suggest.

XMP recognized in a MSI z690-a pro wifi ddr4 with 12700k and latest bios. Very low profile fits under peerless assassin (non-se). The single stick initial boot method worked first try. Running the pair at 1.35v at 1t all other settings xmp with no errors so far on memtest86. considering the 64g redline kit for $40 more to hopefully get dual rank.. doesn't really matter much on intel but hey it's part of the joy of building a desktop.
