What if the exact memory i listed ( Corsair Vengeance RGB Pro ) isnt on the QVL (Qualified Vendors Lists), does that mean i cant use it? Sorry I might seem kinda dumb but i really just wanna make sure, thanks again.

QVL consists of the list of kits tested with the board. If its not tested with the board, that doesnt mean it wont work. Its just that the QVL kits are more likely to work that any other kit. With modern boards and RAM kits, chances of working are more likely than not. You can never know unless you try it. Besides, every component purchase has a return window period precisely for this reason.
