Corsair Vengence LPX Ram has different timings than the version on QVL. Still okay?

Not sure wheter I should put this in CPU or Memory.

In the process of upgrading to a r5 1600. All of the parts should come by the weekend. My RAM arrived today, and when I checked the QVL from my motherboard it wasn't on there. After some searching I have discovered the difference.

The RAM I bought is 16-19-19-36
The RAM is the one on the QVL and is 16-16-16-36

Should I just return it now, or wait until the rest of my PC comes to see if it works?

It will likely work.
That said, ryzen seems to be picky about ram.
Go to the Corsair web site and access their ram selection app.
Enter your motherboard and see if the ram you have matches one of the supported kits.
If it matches, you are ok.
In the event of a problem, you will get help from the ram vendor.
