Also I don't really understand what that warning means that it says.

"The Corsair 8GB (1 x 8GB) DDR3-1600 Memory operating voltage of 1.5V exceeds the Intel Skylake CPU recommended maximum of 1.35V+5% (1.417V). This memory module may run at a reduced clock rate to meet the 1.35V voltage recommendation, or may require running at a voltage greater than the Intel recommended maximum."

Could you explain this a little bit simpler please? And is it a big issue or can I just ignore it?

Thanks :)

It is basically saying that if you are running Skylake with DDR3, you need to run DDR3L for low voltage of 1.35 or lower. I personally would not run any DDR3 with Skylake, DDR4 is pretty cheap now so I would go that route because long term DDR3 use can damage the CPU from pushing too much voltage.

thank you for explaining that to me, and I'll take your advice on getting DDR4 ram!
