i'm planning to build a Gaming PC with:
core i7 4790k Specs Here
kingston HYPERX Fury Black 2x8 DDR3 1866 MHZ CL10 V1.5
so on the processor specs it is written under the memory specifications that
memory types: DDR3-1333/1600, DDR3L-1333/1600 @ 1.5V

does that means that the Rams won't work at all with this processor or will it work at 1600MHZ
or work at a low performance that would cause problems for the system?
 


It will work if the motherboard supports that speed
 


the motherboard would be MSI z97 Gaming 5 which do supports it

just to be sure here ,the RAMs will work at 1866 MHZ , or it will work at a lower MHZ?
and if it will work at a lower MHZ , is it worth it changing the processor which would cause me to also change the Motherboard ,thus increasing the budget of the whole build?
