Gskill trident pc 12800 1.6 v for sandybridge ?

[johnthesmilers]

hi all,
currently my system is using i7 2600k and z68 , what bothering me is my friend told me that my memory gskill trident pc 12800 cl 8 is not good for my system because the voltage is 1.6 v, he said that it better to have corsair vengeance 1.5 v or gskill ripjaws 1.5 v...

please all ,,
i need your advice...

Use it. Your board may default to 1.6 anyway. If it works, don't waste your money on other ram. My board defaults at 1.6, and I can use a wide variety of ram, including 1.8 volt corsair which runs fine at the lower voltage.
