Memory and CPU compatible?

Hi guys,

I recently bought an Intel Core i5-3570K CPU from Newegg and now I'm looking for RAM. I was looking in particular at this model which runs at 1866 Mhz but now I see that my processor will only take 1333 Mhz or 1600 Mhz RAM. So then would the 1866 Mhz RAM simply not work or only run at 1600 Mhz?
 
It will work perfectly and run at 1866MHz as intended so long as the board you've got supports 1866MHz RAM, which I'm sure it does as most do.
