What Motherboard, mostly all that means is your board can run Ram down to 1.8 volts. Some earlier boards bios didnt go down to 1.8 for DDR2 so later they just started stating that the board supports 1.8 voltage.

What is the default voltage for your RAM? Mines 2.2v, but I run it at 1.8v perfectly fine.
