Hello everyone. I am going to buy:

CPU: i3-8100.
Motherboard: ASUS ROG STRIX Z370-F.
RAM: Corsair Vengeance LPX [CMK16GX4M2B3000C15] 16 GB (2x8GB).

Are they compatible? I am asking because I didn't find that RAM in list of compatibles RAM's on ASUS site. I found only with higher MHz like CMK16GX4M2B3200C16 ver4.31

If the almost identical, higher speed ram works on that motherboard, i can't imagine why the slightly slower speed version would not.

Just because the CMK16GX4M2B3000C15 is not on the Memory Support list does not mean Asus is telling you not to use it. It just means Asus has not tested that particular product before hand and certified it compatible. Asus can't, nor will it try to test every brand and model of memory available on the market.

Just use common sense. Buy recognized brands with good customer reviews on retail sites like Newegg and Amazon.
