Dell G16 RAM Upgrade

Hi all.  I am trying to upgrade my RAM and have hit a few snags.  My specs are below as well as what is recommended and what I have tried so far.

System Specs:

Dell G16 7620

Processor: 12th Gen Intel(R) Core(TM) i7-12700H (20 CPUs), ~2.3GHz

Memory: 16384MB RAM

DirectX Version: DirectX 12

Card name: NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3060 Laptop GPU

Display Memory: 14043 MB

 

Then, according to CPU-Z:

Type:  DDR5 / Size:  16GB

Slot 1 and 2 both say:

DDR 5 / Module Size: 8GB

Max Bandwidth:  DDR5-4800 (2400MHz)

 

When I go to the Crucial website, it recommends this RAM:

Crucial 32GB Kit (2x16GB) DDR5-5600 SODIMM

Can anyone tell me if this is compatible?  I see DDR5-4800 listed above, does 5600 not work?  I am just trying to get to 32GB.  I already tried Corsair VENGEANCE DDR5 SODIMM 16GB (2x16GB) DDR5 4800MHz, and it wouldn’t boot afterwards so I put the original RAM back in.  Any tips are greatly appreciated.
