I'm thinking of buying this ram http://infonec.com/site/main.php?m [...] &id=448831

It's CL7 and 1333mhz which i think is a pretty good deal, but the voltages say 1.5-1.65 and the motherboard I'm buying only says it supports 1.5v? and it says on the page that it only supports intel motherboards? Or would it be better to get this for 1 dollar more and only CL8 http://infonec.com/site/main.php?m [...] id=449570.

Either would be fine for an AM3 motherboard. The Intel 1156 and 1366 motherboards use RAM at 1.5v to 1.65v, the AM3 motherboards can handle higher voltages.
