I noticed that the RAM I bought states that it needs a 9000 series CPU to function. I currently have a Ryzen 7500F. Will the RAM still work with my setup?

Don't worry, RAM is pretty versatile! As long as your CPU supports DDR5, which the 7500F does, you'll be fine. The packaging might just be hinting at better performance with a 9000 series unit, but it’ll work with what you have.
It might just need a higher-end CPU to reach certain clock speeds or run an EXPO configuration properly. But yeah, you should still be able to use it without any problems!
Yes, it’ll work with any CPU and motherboard that support DDR5, including your 7500F. They probably included that statement due to a marketing partnership. It's all hype!
Your RAM will definitely work. The 7500F supports DDR5, so you’re good there! The warning about needing a 9000 series CPU likely relates to achieving maximum speed, not functionality.
