ozzyau Posted September 26, 2009 Share Posted September 26, 2009 Hello all, I think I'm in need of some reassurance, but let's see... Firstly i searched and found this thread: almost exact same question but I do not overclock or intend to. My situation is I picked up some new RAM to upgrade from 2x 1GB. New stuff is TWIN2X4096-6400C5. the Corsair PDF lists it as Tested at JEDEC standard latency settings (5-5-5-18) at 1.9V like the guy in the linked thread, my actual DIMM has 1.80V ver3.. something I can't read from here. If I just want everything to run at stock speed (E8500 - 1333MHz FSB) can I just leave things on "auto"? BIOS reports it running at 1.80, so can someone say unequivocally this is fine? From what I can tell system has been stable and just to test I ran LinX and Memtest for 12 hours without problems. My gut feeling is that i shouldn't have to touch anything, and if the DIMM has physically has 1.80V written on it i should be fine, but I respect people's expert opinions on here from many hours of their own experience. Thanks all Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wired Posted September 26, 2009 Share Posted September 26, 2009 If the label says 1.8v then it is perfectly fine to use that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ozzyau Posted September 27, 2009 Author Share Posted September 27, 2009 Thank you Wired. I'm just going to leave it all on automatic and rely on defaults being stable. & thanks to Ram Guy below, too! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Corsair Employees RAM GUY Posted September 29, 2009 Corsair Employees Share Posted September 29, 2009 The max voltage for these modules would be 2.1 Volts so it is not problem at 1.9 Volts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
