It's generally advised to avoid 4 modules if possible. 2X16GB GSKILL F4-3200C14D-32GTZ works fine with the C7H @ 3200 DOCP. There are also several SKUs of the same RAM with different colors of heat spreaders (GTZ) or RGB (GTZR) but functionally they should be identical.

According to GSKILL this 4 stick kit is QVL but it would be great to get the extra bump from dual rank kits instead.

The F4-3200C14D-32GTZ passed memtest86 when I first got them, but I don't remember the parameters I tested with. With memory at 3200 DOCP settings and CPU (PE, CPB, PBO) and SOC settings on Auto, I had no errors in 24 hours of y-cruncher and 9 hours of mprime on BIOS 0702.

16GB modules are dual rank. Dual rank memory is faster due to bank interleaving.

You can read here and on OCN that the fastest performance, frequency, timings, etc are achieved only on single rank. Dual rank and quad modules are harder on the IMC, which seems to be the weakest link.
