heres the exact number of the ram

Yes it will work with your cpu and I would just make sure that the rams voltage stayed at about 1.5v because the memory controller on the cpu will want to see ram that is running at 1.5v. This ram comes at 1.5v to 1.65v so that it works with both AMD and Intel cpu.
It also has the XMP profile so I would initialize that so that the ram will run at the profile that is programed for the Ivy Bridge cpu.
