Will this RAM fit this motherboard? Everyone is telling me to buy this RAM, but Corsair's site doesn't list which board it fits.

When sites list compatible memory or mobos, it's usually after pretty extensive testing. I've bought quality memory that wasn't listed as compatible with a certain mobo....and I never had any problem with it.

The 'problem' is that ASUS board doesn't list 1600 memory (just 1333, 1866, and 2000). It could be a bios update thing -- namely the board didn't support 1600 when it was release. It's possible that ASUS has updated the bios to take 1600!

My suggestion would be to make sure ASUS has issued some kind of an update! If the board does indeed support 3x2gb, then that Corsair set should work!

Unless you plan to OC 1333 is all you need. I went with this GSkill when I built mine last year. It is the highest rated 6GB, 1333 kit on Newegg.
