More than a year ago (I can't remember when), I had the choice of 1.35v DDR3 desktop modules or 1.5v, with the occasional "high end" ones with voltages higher than 1.5v.
In 2010, I bought 2x 2GB Kingston HyperX DDR3-1600 1.5v voltages, now (when I'm looking for the same modules as I bought before, idly thinking about upgrading memory in my system), all I can see available are 1.65v ones, and nowadays I haven't seen any 1.35v modules in quite some time (I'd say more than 12 months).
Any ideas why?
