9Gen memory controller (IMC) design
It should work fine with your 4X8GB SR setup. The 3600Mhz speed at 1.35v isn't overly demanding, especially since you're comparing it to similar kits that handle higher frequencies. You're on a solid configuration, and the trade-off for performance is reasonable. Just keep an eye on stability during initial testing, but it should be safe for regular use.
I use 4GHz CL17 regularly on my 9900K. Refer to "BabyBlu" in my profile.
Be mindful of the motherboard's standard VCCio and VCCsa levels when high-frequency memory is used. Lower them below 1.3V. A few users can handle 1.15V without problems, but for stability at 4000Mhz you should aim around 1.275V. Your board typically sets 1.4V or higher by default.
It's clear you're adjusting the settings for optimal performance. By lowering VCCIO and SA to 0.975V and 1.025V respectively, you've achieved smooth operation. Running at 3000MHz is still manageable, though higher frequencies might benefit from even lower voltages for efficiency.
I also run 16-16-16-36 at 2T and 4000mhz each day... However, at 8700K Bdie.
