You should be able to change your RAM speed to a compatible setting. I think it will be fine. However, you really want to check your memory compatibility with your motherboard

Usually ram will run at the highest supported speed

You'll be fine, you can set the specific speed in the bios.  And if worse comes to worse, you can always return it for a refund.  That shouldn't be necessary though

you need to enable XMP for it to run at that speed, then it is supported
