I'm looking to upgrade my PC to 16 GB of RAM using 2x 8GB DDR4 sticks. I'm basically going for the cheapest ones possible and while searching, I came across RAM that says it's for AMD only like this one:

While others say it's for Intel only and on top of that only certain Intel platforms like this one:

So are those sticks of DDR4 RAM really restricted to those certain platforms? I've never heard of platform exclusive RAM until now. My motherboard chipset is an Intel H310 and I just want to make sure the RAM upgrade I buy will be compatible with my motherboard.
