I7 Dram voltages

[Scarey]

I heard that 1.35v is the safe limit for the dram, else it will cause possible damage to the CPU (I7 920). If not, what are the guidelines for ram voltage? I'm bringing this up after the recent Gigabyte P67 UD7 motherboard review, where this voltage was left to auto. What's the deal with Dram voltage and relationship with the I7 920 and I7 2600K processors?

I7 volts are 1.65v

In the review if you look the screen shot was not ours. Sandy volts are 1.5 native but up to 1.65v is fine if you use older style ram

Thanks for the lightning reply

When I was reseaching overclocking my I7 920, there was lots of jittering about frying the CPU with Dram voltages higher than 1.35v due to the memory controller being in the CPU. Now I know, I'll tinker some more
