Hi, I'm trying to figure out what is the best RAM for my PC is. As you can see from the picture, the current RAM I'm using can be used in the 2 slots on the right because they can't fit under that stupidly massive heatsink (which took 3 of us to install!)

I've found this RAM: http://www.crucial.com/uk/store/mpartspecs.aspx?mtbpoid=277E3C48A5CA7304 Which I know will fit, but I'm wondering about the voltage, is lower better??

If there's any other RAM anyone would recommend, please let me know :D
(Has to be low-profile though :/)

Cheers!
 
Yes, generally lower voltage is better, 1.5V is the standard for DDR3 as well so that's fine. Usually you don't need those massive heatsinks for RAM anyway.
 
Yes it can handle upto DDR3 2200 speed. I've actually just put in some new Corsair XMS3 1600 CAL 8 RAM so i can make use of the dual channel now :D
