The Notebook Review forums were hosted by TechTarget, who shut down them down on January 31, 2022. This static read-only archive was pulled by NBR forum users between January 20 and January 31, 2022, in an effort to make sure that the valuable technical information that had been posted on the forums is preserved. For current discussions, many NBR forum users moved over to NotebookTalk.net after the shutdown.

    Stock voltage of DDR3 = 1.5v
    Voltage of this memory = 1.65v

    Just so people know, memory like this is usually marketed as "performance" but in reality it's crappy memory that's been overvolted to perform better. Also in these cases, you usually end up being unable to populate all of your memory slots.
