If I got 4 of these DIMMS would the latency stay the same without touching them? Or due to the fact of adding 2 more DIMMS they would become unstable and not post?

There is a chance they will work but if these don't go down in price, that's £280 you are paying for 32GB of memory.

At this stage you may aswell wait for G. Skill's 2x16GB kit that will be much cheaper and guaranteed to work. Release in 2 weeks. I already know G. Skill got these validated on all the top range boards.
 
The Ryzen 9 3900X is limited to DDR4-2933 when using four modules, whereas AMD’s official spec says the CPU will handle DDR4-3200 with just two modules.

Depending on how good the silicon is, the integrated memory controller might do better than that. Our chip handles right up to DDR4-3600 CL16 memory with four modules, but whatever the limit, the point is, it will go higher with just two modules.

Dual-ranked modules introduce a new set of limits, though none were explored in this article. AMD lists the official dual-ranked DIMM support as DDR4-3200 for two modules, but just DDR4-2666 when using four modules.
It would be interesting to see how two and four dual-ranked modules compare in these dual-channel systems, but that’s a test for another day.

With my motherboard and 10900k. I am limited to 3600MT/s with 4 sticks and stock primary timings. There is a boost to performance in time spy cpu. For my CPU its the boost in min fps that makes it worth it.

A system populated with more than two single-ranked modules will actually act as if dual-ranked modules are installed.
