Conclusion

...the bottom line is that enthusiasts running fast memory on an AMD platform now have another fine choice.

G.Skill's nascent Trident Z Royal line, fast as it is, available in speeds from 3,000MHz to 4,800MHz, isn't really about frequency. Other modules with identical ICs can rightfully claim performance parity, so the real reason for considerable purchase is to marry the distinctive look and well-implemented RGB lighting to your premium build.

Knowing that AMD is gaining in traction and enthusiast mindshare, G.Skill qualifies a number of Trident Z Royal modules for the AM4 platform. The list isn't at all long once you hit 3,600MHz-plus, but on the select boards that are able, like the MSI X470 Gaming M7 AC, we've demonstrated the modules run flawlessly and offer a consistent bit of extra performance over more generic RAM.

The bottom line is that enthusiasts running fast memory on an AMD platform now have another fine choice in the Trident Z Royal Silver modules.

Only CL18, you'd be better off with CL14 DDR4-3200 in terms of performance imo.
