In short, yes—lowering the speeds and adjusting timings should provide solid performance.

From my experience on Zen platform (first gen) Frequency is more important than timings. There is a math equation that determines this due to latency vs. Frequency but I saw very little (margin of error) change when focusing on timings, vs pushing 3600mhz which resulted in much higher frame rates and tighter frame times (gaming first, for me) What CPU (give us full specs) Likely to get stable, better timings, would be to increase voltage and drop it to CL16 and see if its stable (I wouldn't seek to first sacrifice frequency either way, Id try to get all the things - freq and timings)

The X470 motherboard only supports up to 3466 MHz, but the 3600 chipset can still deliver speeds beyond that if your system meets the necessary requirements.

The motherboards are confirmed to function at the claimed speeds for the memory controller on the board. The rest depends on silicon performance and voltage tweaks.

I have a 2700x resolution and plan to upgrade soon.

I would attempt the XMP/DOCP configuration. Unless you're referring to BIOS limitations where RAM speed caps at 3466MHz, I'd wonder if your BIOS has been recently updated.

The Mobo is an X470 model, its performance isn't limited by the BIOS, and the chipset is designed for this setup.

I think you can adjust DOCP in BIOS. The chipset shouldn't be an issue. You can use fast RAM with an X470 motherboard. My X470 will handle 4400MHz nicely with a 3900X. The main concern is whether the CPU's IMC supports 32GB at 3600MHz—only you’ll find out by testing. Are you mentioning trying it at 3600MHz or if the manual only mentions 3466MHz for your setup? Also, did you place the RAM in the second and fourth slots?
