Hi, 

I want to know if its safe to use this ram module--> CMK16GX4M2B2800C14 (corsair vengeance lpx 2800 MHz) on a ASrock z370 pro 4.

 The Ram its not in the QVL list, but how intel LGA1151 its a already solid estabilished platform, maybe he can work flawless? 

Someone has experience with this module?

I can't say for sure, but my Corsair Vengeance LPX 3200 is on the QVL and works on this board.
I can't get it to boot with XMP Profile 1 on current BIOS 1.30 however.

I would either wait for a BIOS update or purchase memory that's on the QVL.
I'd say as popular as Corsair Vengeance LPX memory is, it should be compatible once BIOS updates are updated with memory compatibility.

I hope it works for you bud. It'll boot at stock speeds at least. I have a support ticket in for XMP not working, but maybe I just need to manually plug in frequency, voltage, and timings. :/
