My ram:
http://www.morele.net/pamiec-corsai...-9-9-9-24-xmp-white-cml8gx3m2a1600c9w-419635/

Corsair Vengeance Low Profile 2x4GB 1600MHz, DDR3, CL(9-9-9-24), XMP White (CML8GX3M2A1600C9W) rated 1.35 V


I am running Asus Sabertooth Z79 Mark 2 . I bought this memory 3 years ago brand new at a local store and when installed motherboard BIOS shows it running at auto 1333MHz with auto voltage 1.535v ,however its rated at 1600MHz at 1.35v.
Also i have errors in memtest. Can somebody explain me why?
Mobo just giving them auto 1333mhz and 1.535v.





Also.

On memory compatibility on my mobo there are :
CML8GX3M2A1600C9 with 1.5v


I have
CML8GX3M2A1600C9W ( white ) with 1.35 V There are not in list.

So maybe buy just that
CML8GX3M2A1600C9 with 1.5 v?


Can higher than rated voltage cause instability of dram? My ram is rated to 1,35v but mobo gives on auto 1.535v. Can 1.35v rated memory operate at 1.525v?

Just set it manually. The auto assigned SPD timings are generally just a set of timings that is most likely to work in most boards/with most ram.

So, set them manually, the timings of 9-9-9-24 and voltage to 1.35. leave the rest on auto, reboot and re test. If you are still getting errors, then the ram is faulty and needs to be RMA'd
