RAM timings.

There are two different RAM kits I can but and they are identical apart from timings, voltage and MHz.

Could I use RAM with 9-9-9-27 timings on a Sandy Bridge P67 motherboard, the RAM is also 1.65V and 1600MHz?

I'm looking at some 8GB XMS3 at 1.65V, would this be alright?

EDIT - this: 8GB (2x4GB) Corsair XMS3 DDR3 PC3-12800 (1600), Non-ECC Unbuffered, CAS 9-9-9-27, 1.65V

It's listed on the site as 9-9-9-27, so if i use it will I have to change bios settings to make it run at 1.5V?
