AM3; which DDR3?

[manic111]

I know that AM3 chips have a special integrated memory controller. DO they need specific RAM modules (I've seen some OCZ ones listed as AM3 compatible), or is that just marketing speak and any dual channel DDR3 will work?

Cheers!

Any dual channel DDR3 will work in an AM3 board

Any dual channel will work, the AM3 versions seem to have a lower voltage like the tripple channel kits for Intel, around the 1.6X V ~ area.
