I have MAXIMUS VI GENE Z87, Intel Core i5-4690 Processor, FURY DDR3L 1600MHz 2x8Gb.
The CPU and Motherboard are compatible and i got confused with the DDR3L compatibility.
I read on Wikipedia about DDR3L
"The DDR3L and DDR3U specifications are compatible with the original DDR3 standard and can run at either the lower voltage or at 1.50 V.[19] However, newer DDR3L-capable devices, which only operate at 1.35 V, such as systems using fourth-generation Intel processors, are not compatible with DDR3 SDRAM since DDR3 SDRAM operates only at 1.50 V."
Now Intel Core i5-4690 Processor requirements for Memory are DDR3-1333/1600, DDR3L-1333/1600 @ 1.5V
MAXIMUS VI GENE
4 x DIMM, Max. 32GB, DDR3 3000(O.C.)/2933(O.C.)/2800(O.C.)/2666(O.C.)/2600(O.C.)/2500(O.C.)/2400(O.C.)/2200(O.C.)/2133(O.C.)/2000(O.C.)/1866(O.C.)/1800(O.C.)/1600(O.C.)/1333(O.C.) MHz Non-ECC, Un-buffered Memory
Dual Channel Memory Architecture
Supports Intel® Extreme Memory Profile (XMP)
CPU is required to be at 1.5V, should i then change the voltage?
What are the newer DDR3L-capable devices which only operate at 1.35V and are "systems using fourth-generation Intel processors"?
Should i run the memory at 1.35V or 1.5V?
Will 1.5V be compatible with my motherboard?
