Query with ram upgrade. 1.35v vs 1.5v voltage

[Prit_Margi]

I've decided to upgrade ram of my hp elitedesk g1 800 mini. Originally my pc came with a samsung 4gb ram which is of 1.5v. But now i want to upgrade but I'm confused between volatge (1.35 & 1.5). Can the 1.35v ram work on pc because it's cheaper than the 1.5v ones. I'll be removing my old ram so the 1.35v one will work by itself

Yes, DDR3L-1600 1.35V memory will work in your PC.

In order to meet the DDR3 memory standard, DDR3L memory has to be able to run at 1.5V as well as 1.35V.

DDR3 1.5V does not have to run at 1.35V.

So, if a PC is using DDR3 1.5V memory, then DDR3L 1.35V memory will work.

But if a PC requires DDR3L 1.35V memory (usually this pertains to notebook PC's), then DDR3 1.5V memory will not work.

The 800 G1 DM will support up to 2 x 8 GB of DDR3/DDR3L-1600 SODIMM memory.
