Hello. I am building a new PC and am finding parts. I am on a quite tight budget so I am looking for cheap parts. I want to know if my RAM sticks are compatible with my motherboard. I would not know as I have very little experience with computer parts. Here are the products

Motherboard: Gigabyte GA-970A-DS3 AM3+ AMD 970 SATA 6Gb/s USB 3.0 ATX AMD Motherboard. http://www.amazon.com/Gigabyte-GA-970A-DS3-AM3-SATA-Motherboard/dp/B0083R9QQG%3FSubscriptionId%3DAKIAIAA4MWUJXHBYFRNQ%26tag%3Dsquid1324477-20%26linkCode%3Dxm2%26camp%3D2025%26creative%3D165953%26creativeASIN%3DB0083R9QQG

RAM: Corsair Vengeance Blue 8 GB (2X4 GB) PC3-12800 1600mHz DDR3 240-Pin SDRAM Dual Channel Memory Kit CMZ8GX3M2A1600C9B

Thanks for any help, and if they don't work together please offer me other products with around the same specifications and price range.

If the RAM wasn't compatible with the mobo.. it wouldn't work at all would it?
