motherboard RAM compatability

[popeye]

I'm doing research for the build I plan on doing in the near future, and I am planning on using the Gigabyte GA-P35-DS3L motherboard. I downloaded the manual and it says its compatible with DDR2 ram @ 1.8V. I looked on their compatibility chart and it shows that it's compatible with the Crucial memory that I plan on using.

However, the Crucial memory is 2.2V RAM. Should I be concerned that this RAM will not work? I'm new to this stuff so please forgive my ignorance.

Thanks!

2.2V basiclly told you how much voltage could the RAM upto without damaging it.
ppl increase the voltage such that they can oc them to work faster.

no worries it would work..2.2v on your crucial is just the safest high voltage for oc'ers...lol i just copied exactly what he said ^
