So lately I've been cleaning my room because of me moving out and I've found out my old PC RAM still on the box from whenever I've upgraded it back 5yrs ago.
Today I've a completely new PC, have been wondering if the old RAM can be put to a good use in the new PC instead of trowing to trash, its not a lot of RAM but 2x2GB more could be used well.
I've done a little bit of research and haven't found nothing but the only thing I've seen so far, is the site "PCPARTPICKER" telling me that these RAM voltage of 1.5 V exceeds the Intel Skylake CPU recommended maximum of 1.35 V+5% (1.417 V). This memory module may run at a reduced clock rate to meet the 1.35 V voltage recommendation, or may require running at a voltage greater than the Intel recommended maximum.
I'm kind of afraid to try this by myself and burning or destroying my CPU. So I would like a little bit more of insight about these stuff? What should I do, add to my pc or throw it to the trash?

RAM: https://www.gskill.com/product/165/...BNTValueDDR3-1333MHz-CL9-9-9-1.50V2GB-(1x2GB)
TLDR: Should I add a RAM I've found in the closet or it may cause problem to my CPU's PC?
Thank you very much for any generous help.
