hy there again. it's been quite a while since i last posted here, but i'm undecided what memory to associate for my E6400.

i already have a 1GB dual kit GEIL ddr2 ultra pc2-6400 CL4 and i wanted to buy another one, but firms in my country don't seem to provide it anymore till january...

my mobo is a Gigabyte GA-P965-DS3 and its manual says that it accepts 1,8v tested memory...such as that GEIL kit...

i found plenty of 1GB Kingston hyper x pc2-6400 CL4 however...which recommend a 1,9 voltage

so my question is: do i have to increase the voltage to 1,9 from bios to have the Kingston hyper x work properly? and if i do that the GEIL kit will work fine at 1,9v?
