Hello, I currently have 16 gigs of DDR3 1600MHz RAM, and I'm really worried that it won't work with the CPU. On their website they say that it only works with DDR4 RAM, but I saw that it's compatible with DDR3 on other websites. Can anyone please help me out on this?

Ugh, that's not great to hear :/
Is there any good CPU that works with DDR3, or should I just sell them all and buy DDR4? (<- This would be a bummer because my dad spent months on trying to cop some DDR3 and it only arrived like a week ago :/)

The thing is that my motherboard is quite good, and I don't know if I want to get a new one, but if I want an intel cpu I must get a new one... this is so complicated... you guys sure that all the Radeon CPU's require DDR4?
