I am Building my next computer on http://au.pcpartpicker.com/ And i currently have an imcompatability issue mentioned by the website and i was just looking for some help on what to do about the situation.

Warning - The G.Skill Trident X Series 16GB (4 x 4GB) 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.

Build - http://au.pcpartpicker.com/p/BdW33C

Is the compatibility issue dangerous to the build and why i would really like to know these things as i intend to get better in the hardware side of computers in the future and this is my first build thanks in advance.
 
Solution
-There's no incompatibility here.
-The extra voltage is essential for higher speeds in DDR3.
-It'll not damage your rig in any manner.
-You'll just need to enable XMP from BIOS (provided by Intel) for the sticks to run at stated speeds.
-Great build there!
