Currently putting together 2x clone systems .. both using this Mobo with AMD Athlon II X4 620 Propus CPU's. One for a WHS server, the other for my daughter's desktop.
I had 2x2GB 800 sticks on hand (upgraded my e8400 desktop last spring) running 1.8v. which should work with this board default memory voltage. I picked up some Corsairs 2x2GB - CM2X2048-8500C5C - 5-6-6-18, but they run 2.1v .... will they work??
If yes, will it post this memory at board default 1.8v??
If yes, can I bump up the memory voltage up??
If yes, will about .3v be correct??
Thanks

PS
For both systems, running Corsair CMPSU-400CX - 400W
Neither system will be used for gaming, running onboard graphics.
Lot's of clean power available to system.

Hi,
Check out you memory compatibility here,.

If ok it should post at default 1.8 v
The bios should allow you the option to increase voltage, I don't have the manual to check, but you can download it via the link above,
0.3 v setting would increase voltage to the 2.1v for your requirements,
Let us know how you get on.
Regards

Yeah running memory @ 2.1v won't be a problem :)

Thanks guys for the help.
I was aware of the memory list, unfortunately it is sparse in listed sticks.
Work is going to keep me busy through the weekend ... hope to get a few things
done after hours.
Thanks again
