I purchased this kit of Corsair Vengeance LPX 3000 CL16 memory: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B074MQX45D/ref=twister_B01M33CGCY?_encoding=UTF8&psc=1

And this Ryzen 1500x cpu and gigabyte motherboard combo:
https://www.amazon.com/AMD-Processor-Wraith-Cooler-YD150XBBAEBOX/dp/B06ZXRG6XD/ref=sr_1_9?s=pc&ie=UTF8&qid=1507514285&sr=1-9&keywords=Ryzen&th=1

I have been searching around for sources saying this 3000 mhz CL16 memory will work with this setup but all I can find are people with 3000 CL15. Does the difference in cas latency matter to much in terms of compatibility? I'm not too worried about my ram running at lower speeds. I'm just worried about not being able to boot my PC. Any information is appreciated thanks.
