RAM compatible with MB?

[arceus493]

Is the ASUS M5A97 R2.0 MB (https://www.asus.com/Motherboards/M5A97_R20/)
compatible with CRUCIAL 16GB kit (2x 8GB) DDR3 1600 PC3-12800 CL9 RAM (http://eu.crucial.com/eur/en/bls2cp8g3d1609ds1s00ceu)

I checked the compatibility list and it wasn't listed, will it still work?

Memory QVL can never list every single compatible ram out there. It will work unless you have another kit, but in most cases it will work

Yes you will be fine, MB manufactures cant test every model of every brand of ram made.
