DP35DPM RAM question (voltages)

I'm considering building a new system and this board looks like a good choice. I am concerned about RAM though, the voltages seem to be pretty limited. Is anyone using a full 8GB on these, or even 4GB, that can recommend a decent set of RAM for it?

Re: DP35DPM RAM question (voltages)

Yes, the ram voltages on the DP35DP are limited to 1.8 volts. A lot of people have said this, in customer reviews of the board on Newegg.

If you go with this board, you will have to buy memory that is rated to run at 1.8 volts via the SPD chip on each DIMM.

Re: DP35DPM RAM question (voltages)

Hi,

i'm just typing on a computer with a DP35DPM with 4GB RAM.
I'm using 4 sticks of Kingston Value RAM KVR667D2N5/1G. Latest Bios 0413 installed and no problem.

Bye

That's because the majority of memory, is rated at 1.8 volts if it is not high performance/overclocking memory. Kingston Value Ram is rated at about 1.8 volts.

Yeah I will probably end up getting the Corsair XMS2 stuff like I have on my DP965LT.
