i5-760 Work with 1.5v ram?

Hello. I'm buying an Intel i5-760 CPU along with the "Gigabyte GA-UD3 1156" motheboard, but I need to know, are those two parts compatible with 1.5V DDR3 memory?

Thanks!
 
However, 1.5 voltage is typically better for overclocking/longevity than 1.65, and 1.35 is even better, especially if you get it at an attractive price.
 
1.5V is the standard for the platform. So while lower is beneficial, higher is detrimental -to the memory controller and power consumption.

Note the allowable increments are likely .1 so 1.35 requires setting to 1.40 (and may provide and/or report 1.44). So, ideally 1.3 spec would be used but the available parts are very limited compared to 1.35.
