So I know that 1.8v RAM will work in my PC but all the RAM I find that is PC2 6400 at 1.8v can only have a Cas Latency of 5. I want to run RAM that have a Cas Latency of 4 but they all require 2.0v - 2.1v. I have looked into my Bios and on the forms and found that I can not change the voltage through the Bios. Will my pc auto set to run the 2.0v - 2.1v or do I have to stick to RAM that operates at 1.8v.

Also is it possible being a noob that there is a way to change the voltage and i just have not found it yet?

Thanks for your time and help.
