Safe to use this memory and downclock it?

I have 5 7600 and I was looking to go with this for the ram: CMH32GX5M2B6400C36W It's rated for 6400 but I heard the 7000 series can usually only run at 5800 or 6000. Is it good if I just downclock it? the motherboard I was looking to use is a MSI PRO B650-S WIFI. I didn't see this specific ram on the qualified vendors list for AMD. I can't really return the ram now either. Is it fine to still use it?

If it is too late to return it, why ask whether it will work?

Try it at the rated speed. If it doesn't work, try downclocking it. If that doesn't work, then you'll have to eat the cost and buy a different kit.

Yeah it is too late to return. Do I need to worry about memory timings or stuff like that? And is there a way to know that it's working well or is it fine as long as I'm not crashing?
