Just bought this off OcUK and on there website it says 1.5v now the kit has come and it says 1.65v on it and the XMP profile says 1.65v too.

Not very happy as i didnt want to go over 1.65v and wanted to go up to that and tighten up the timings.

:mad:

Manually adjust the voltage down, I run the Kingston Hyper x ram which shows 1.65v but I am running at 1.55v without issues.
 
Which kit exactly?, according to one review the GEIL EVO VELOCE – Dual Channel 2133 MHz 2 x 8 GB kit has a working voltage of 1.65V. Have you tried to set the voltage to 1.5V manually in the bios?. Or contact OcUK support.
 
Dont worry about that man. Its hynix!!! it will scale upto 1.9v you have plenty of scope to go with. You can go with 1.675 - 1.7 24/7 easy.

My bench rig runs hours a day and I mean hours, hammering the frequency and timings at 1.9v for months, new hynix loves voltage.

I dont see why everyone on here is so bothered about running voltage through RAM???? What ever RAM it is you, want to run it tight it will need voltage.

With RAM, CPU etc its all the same ultimately everything scales with Voltage. Old Hynix scaled upto 1.75 no problem so old RipjawZ easy 2400mhz+ upto around 2500mhz.

This new stuff upto 1.9v. I am not saying run 1.9v 24/7 But I certainly would not be worry with 1.7v at all.

They will clock well I would not worry about that.

I figured you'd be worried if on Sandybridge because of the vdimm voltage scare, then i saw the 3930K in your sig and chuckled.. Throw whatever voltage you want at it :p (within reason, don't be stupid lol).
 
My SB 2500K and 2600K I have had since they came out, I put 1.825v through the PSC IC DIMMS at DDR 2200+ every single time I use em Timings of 6-9-7-25-72 1T and they have not degraded at all 2500 does 5.6 and 2600K does 5750 and always has.

I personally think that 1.5v limit was utter nonsense.
 
I never understood how the voltage you apply to your ram could have any effect on cpu, it's not like that voltage gets past on to the cpu
 
Well these are the IC's inside Geils new Veloce memory.
