Does AN517-41 support CL20 RAM? Kingston Impact Fury

I'm thinking of upgrading the current (slow) Kingston 1Rx16 8GBx2 RAM clocked at 3200 MHz, and CL22 with the Kingston Impact Fury SODIMM:
https://www.kingston.com/en/memory/gaming/kingston-fury-impact-ddr4-memory?speed=3200mt/s&total (kit) capacity=16gb&kit=single module&dram density=8gbit

It's a 2Rx8 16GB module (gonna buy two of them) with CL20 and 3200MHz. In the spec sheet it says that the PnP capability is 3200MHz/CL20. It also has two XMP profiles which, of course, are useless in my case:

Ryzen 5600H
RTX 3060 95W

The question is: Will the 2x16GB Fury Impact run at CL20/3200MHz in my Ryzen machine?

    Yes, it should work with the Zen 3 cpu . But I seriously doubt it'll  make a noticeable difference. IOW, I wouldn't pay extra for a pair.

    I've tested the current 1Rx16 RAM with CL22 in AIDA64. It's horrible. At the bottom of all the benchmarks. Having seen plenty of both gaming and production (I don't do heavy production, machine learning at most) benchmarks, upgrading from 1Rx16 with poor timings/latency to 1Rx8 yields 15% improvements in most scenarios. Jarred's tech made a couple of great benchmarks. Both synthetic compiles/adobe and gaming. Improvements in all areas.

    I was planning to spend some cash on a RAM upgrade, and if the Kingston Fury Impact WILL run at CL20/3200MHz ... then it's great. More importantly, it's a 1Rx8 chip

    Actual performance in games, photoshop ,mathematica, etc is where it's at.  A +15% benchmark score doesn't necessarily mean a noticeable performance difference. Should make you feel better though. :)

    @Frodosynthesis Have you upgraded your ram? will you please tell me what speed you got now with kingston fury or you went for another option?
