RAM Voltage


How much voltage can Kingston DDR2 handle? I dont want to put too much in and damage anything.

With 2gb of Hyper X DDR2 800 here the recommended was 1.8v. The settings were still left on auto in the bios here however. The standard depends on what is seen in the specifications for any memory. Some Kingston was seen at 1.85 or 1.9v as well. What Kingston is this in regards to there?

It's hard to say not knowing the model, but generally DDR2 RAM can run anywhere from 1.8-2.2v. However if you want to use it at the 2.2v range, I would make sure it gets adequate cooling.

When setting dram timings here to -4-4-4-14 in the bios I looked over the volrages best suited for the memory here. The specifications will show the standard voltaage while most boards will go by the dram timing when set to auto. Unless you are ocing with caution look at the votage listed for the memory there.
