Hi all!
Just signed up on this forum and I would like some opinions on my upgrade that i'm thinking about. 
I'm from Sweden so I won't include prices in the post since that would be hard to compare SEK with US$. 
I'm thinking of buying these parts: https://pcpartpicker.com/list/z82vbX
Now, my question is if that the memory that I have choosen will work on that MB, the specific partnumber is not listed on the QVL but according to this: http://www.userbenchmark.com/System/Asus-ROG-STRIX-B450-F-GAMING/93471 alot of people are using this combination? 

Also it seems that the memory I have chosen for this build is based on Hynix M-die, can I suspect some worse results in overclocking my memory than using Samsung die memory?

 

Thanks in advance!

There is a chance it might work, i also run unsupported memory. If you want to be on the safe side, buy from the qvl 

On the QVL this memory is listed: F4-3200C16D-8GVKB, the only difference between that one and the one i'm thinking of buying is the 8 at the end, since the kit i'm looking at is a 2*8GB kit instead of a 2*4GB kit which is listed on the QVL. In my mind this shouldn't matter, but i'm still unsure.

Where I live (Sweden) the motherboard that you recommended costs about $184US and the one that I picked is about $146US. Overall there is a big price gap between B450 boards and X470 boards.
