Memory voltage question on I860

[syke555]

Hi folks,
I bought two sets of these http://www.valueram.com/datasheets/KHX1333C7D3K2_4G.pdf for a total of 8Gb of memory.

On the website where I bought them it said 7-7-7-20 timings @ 1.5V, but when I look at the PDF above I notice that the 1.5V is for the SPD timings. Am I correct in thinking that I'll fry my i7 if I set the timings to 7-7-7-20?

/Regards
Stefan

No, you'll likely get no POST.

It sounds like the site listed the specs incorrectly.

That kit is DDR3-1333 7-7-7 @ 1.7v, or 9-9-9 @ 1.5.

You may be able to tighten them up somewhat even @ 1.5v, & you can generally do up to around 1.65v before i'd be concerned about vDIMM being too high anyway.

Thanks for the answer, I'll give it a shot. 🙂
