I am in the process of building my dream pc, I so far have the Motherboard (boxdx79sr from intel) the processor (intel i7-3930k) and on the way I have 8 sticks of G.Skill Ram (DDR3, PC3-19200)

Here is my issue, i know its my fault for not being through, but the ram is rated at 1.65 volts, it seems from what I read that the processor and motherboard only support 1.5 volt ram.

So can I use this ram at all? I seem to think I can, maybe just at a lower voltage?

And what originally choses the ram voltage in BIOS?

thanks for any help!!!
