I am building a computer and need advice. The CPU has memory specs and so does the motherboard. So, part picker is telling me that all my parts are compatible even though, according to my CPU specs, the memory is not compatible. Here are some inks.

So do only the motherboards specs matter, or do they both have to support it.

If the RAM is good brand like G.SKILL , CORSAIR Vengeance , Crucial Ballistix , Kingston HyperX etc. they will work well. Check my signature I had the CORSAIR XMS 8GB 1600Mhz.
If you want you can use the 1600Mhz at 1333MHz too because the system will run the default at 1333mhz.

The CPU memory specs is important. The MB can support other CPU, if you put the i5-2380P into that MB, the RAM speed can run at 1333MHz, you maybe can oc the RAM to 1600MHz but not the 1866MHz, if you add the i5-2500K you may oc the RAM to 1866Mhz.
