I won't touch 1.65 for sticks under 2133, no need for for that much voltage, 1600/9 particularly, which is entry level, less than 14% of available sticks in 1600 are 1.6 or higher and thankfully that number is shrinking....creates unnedded heat and can be indicative that cheapie mem chips were used (why else need 1.65 for entry level freqs
