Here is a typical pic of 1066 MHz DDR2 RAM. Note the recommended voltage to achieve this specified performance.


I would click "FAIL" for you if you would only re-enable the button!
You see, that's why I don't bother enabling fail on my account. Because anyone who would fail me would just make an idiot out of themselves for being wrong anyway.

If a board officially supports DDR2 1066 ram (like the 785G I recommended), it will run the correct voltage determined by the SPD.
