How do I find out what RAM voltage a particular MB requires?

There's a couple of different ones I'm looking at for a future build and I cant seem to figure it out. I know most SB builds require the RAM to be 1.5V but the AMD ones can vary between 1.35 - 1.65, and I've had a couple of motherboards fry because I got the wrong RAM voltage. And most manufacturers don't seem to put that information up on their website - they kind of put some things in there like compatible modules, but when I check the part numbers on those modules on Newegg they don't seem to register, is there any definitive way I could find this out?

IDK but getting the lowest voltage you can pretty much ensures you won't fry yours. Having too low a voltage will only cause memory errors (resulting in BSODs) no lasting damage is done.
