What does this mean?

"The Corsair Vengeance Pro 16GB (2 x 8GB) DDR3-2400 Memory operating voltage of 1.65V exceeds the Intel Haswell Refresh CPU recommended maximum of 1.5V+5% (1.575V). This memory module may run at a reduced clock rate to meet the 1.5V voltage recommendation, or may require running at a voltage greater than the Intel recommended maximum."

 

Hello everyone! Could someone tell me what this means? I'm not really good at understanding english since it's my second language.

It means that your CPU isn't meant to run higher speed ram. (Which is bullshit really)

If your motherboard supports the speed, you would be able to run the RAM.

It just means that it isn't on Intel's spec sheet.

Look under <Memory Specifications>.

Do I have to use the speed that's on the memory specification or can I get memory with higher speeds?

If your motherboard allows it, you can get higher speeds.

You might have to tweak some settings at the BIOS though. (I'm 99% sure that you could run higher speed memory).

How do I know if my motherboard allows it?

Can I see your PCPartPicker link please?

Can I see your PCPartPicker link please?

No, he saids it's very private.

I'm not sure if the PCPartPicker link was up there or not, but.... 

 

DDR3-1333 / 1600 / 1866 / 2000 / 2133 / 2400 / 2666 / 2800 / 2933 / 3000 / 3100 / 3200 / 3300

 

 

Yes, your mobo should support it.

Was the ppp link up there?

Gosh darn it, I asked for it when it was up there?

The Formula VII can handle 2400MHz RAM. Just plug the RAM in, go into your BIOS and enable the XMP profile which should get the RAM running at the rated 2400MHz.

Haswells IMC likes to operate with 1.35-1.5v RAM. However there'd be no issues running at 1.65v.
