Press and forget = 6000
Probably okay, but some luck needed = 6400
Faster on occassion, but fiddly = 8000

DDR5 Memory Performance Scaling with AMD Zen 5
Our AMD Zen 5 Memory Scaling Review examines six different DDR5 memory speeds, including DDR5-8000, DDR5-6400 1:1, DDR5-6400 CL28 and others. We looked into how these speeds impact performance in gaming at four resolutions and a wide range of application workloads.

Kits above 6000 are far more commonly XMP, since AM5 / 7000 CPUs worked best with that speed on release.
6200/6400 EXPO kits do exist, though less common than 6000.
XMP is not a problem, many X870 boards have XMP kits on their QVL, even @ 8000+ (but since this is overclocking their presence on the QVL is not guaranteeing they will run problem-free).
just got any 6000Mhz cl30 and move on with your life, really its too short
on AM5 i assume the new chips??

You can do it on the old ones (board dependent and you'd probably need a BIOS update), it was just not worth bothering with except for the lols.
and bragging right's lol
id like to put in an EDIT... what amount of ram are you looking for
