3570K and ram voltage.

[Nevakonaza]

Hey chaps,

So i heard you should keep ram voltage to 1.5 or somethign on Sandybridge Cpus to prevent damage...is the same still applicable to Ivybridge Cpus..in particular the 3570K?

I asked on Intel live support but just could not get a valid answer out of him..

Only my ram is 1.6V.

cheers.

1.65v should be fine, many people use 1.65v RAM XMP settings on IVY and SB-E. Some people over that even. 1.6v i wouldn't worry about.

Your RAM will likely do its rated speed at 1.5-1.55v easily. 1.6v wouldn't worry me however.
