I am looking to buy the Intel Pentium G4560, which is the new 7th gen Kaby Lake, with the MSI B250 Gaming Motherboard. I'm fairly confident on the RAM. Per the specs, it says it accepts DDR4 2400 RAM. I found some G.Skill DDR4 2400, but with most of them, I'm seeing that under the specs for the RAM, it says under 'Chipset', "Intel Z170 / Intel X99 format. Does this mean the RAM isn't compatible, or it is? From what I understand, the Z170 format is different from the newer B250 motherboards. Am I wrong or misunderstanding this? Any light someone can shed on this would be excellent. I've been out of the loop for a while. Thanks in advanced!
Help with RAM compatibility please!

The 2400 DDR4 is a perfect fit for the G4560 and a B250 board , ads are just out of date on the supported specs.
