Memory/Chip Compatibility

[smithbc82]

I am currently in the process of building my PC..I purchased a mobo with a socket size of 1155 and a CPU of 1155. I just noticed that the memory says it only supports 1156. Would this/Should this make a difference and why? I have not installed it yet just wanted to make sure I didn't ruin my setup before I did. Here are the links to the components.

MOBO: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16813128552
CPU: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16819115233
RAM: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16820231319

Whether or works or not, I would really like to know why..knowledge is power.

They are listed as compatible: http://www.gskill.com/configurator2.php?pid=2&model=1562
So install them. They should work.
