Does any one knows if the HP Z620 WS can take the low voltage SK HYNIX 16GB 2Rx4 PC3L-12800R ECC Ram Modules ?
I could only find this in the memory config PDF file from HP:
• 1.35V and 1.5V DIMMs are supported, but the
system will operate the DIMMs at 1.5V only.
but not sure if its OK as it never states explicitely PC3L at all ( although these are indeed 1.35V) ?
thanks

> 1.35V and 1.5V DIMMs are supported, but the system will operate the DIMMs at 1.5V only.
People who "overclock" their computers often increase the voltage supplied to the RAM.
So, adding 11% to the voltage (going from 13.5 to 14.99) should not harm the RAM.
The extra voltage might possibly shorten the "lifetime" of the RAM. Maybe.
