Intel G33 ram voltage?

[Joony]

I just picked up this mobo: Intel BOXDG33BUC.

It says that the ram I needed is 1.8V according to the comments.

So this Patriot ram won't work? (rated for 2.2V)

Potentially it won't. I had some of the Patriot stuff (with red heatspreaders) that wouldn't boot on a number of boards, but then worked fine after booting the board with some other RAM and manually setting stuff in BIOS. PITA! Any RAM that isn't "rated" for 1.8v is basically factory overclocked. You may as well get 1.8v RAM for cheaper and overclock it yourself.
