I'm weighing the Corsair Vengeance RGB PRO 3200MHz PC4-25600 C16 against the G.Skill TridentZ RGB 3600MHz PC4-28800 CL18. Neither is clear which would suit my setup best. I'm not sure if the difference will be noticeable, but most users say it won't make a big impact. The Corsair costs more, though, and my build includes an i9-10990K, ASUS Rog Maximus Hero, and I intend to push the overclock limit.

If you're choosing the 10990k, and you think you'll be playing games, go with the C16. The CL18 is really high for that use case.

The G.Skill TridentZ 3600MHz CL18 offers better value compared to the Corsair Vengeance Pro 3200MHz CL16. Although the faster memory might not show a clear improvement, its lower cost makes it more appealing.
