Will this RAM support my motherboard?

So I recently just finished my first build, but my RAM is taking a while to arrive. I checked back and I realised the timings were different to the ones listed in my motherboard manual. I'm worried it might cause issues at POST process.

RAM: G. Skill Ares Dual Channel 2133mhz (2x4gb)

Mobo: Asus M5A97 EVO R2.0

CPU: FX 8320 3.5ghz

Not sure what you mean by different timings, but the DRAM should work. You'll need to adjust some settings to get them to run at the full 2133MHz, but that's not a big deal.

Chances are that they will work, the 8320 is rated to 1866, but the Ares have loose timings so chances are good, if any problems give me a shout, worst case scenario would be to run them at 1866, but believe we can run them at 2133

Alright, thats reassuring. Do I also have to worry about the Intel XMP feature with the RAM, seeing as I have an AMD motherboard?

On an AMD board it's called DOCP, or DRAM Overclock Profile. Same same.

DOCP or EOCP and pretty much the same, may require a voltage adjustment or two for 2133, if any problems, give me a shout

I got G.Skill snipers on the same motherboard, 2133ghz dual channel 2x4gb, with another dual channel corsair vengance 2x4gb 1600 mhz, both work perfectly with no adjustments. I think you got no worries.
