Hi there guys

Im at the moment in progress with my RIG building.
I already have it running with the following components

CPU: i7-4770k
GFX: Geforce GTX 780
PSU: Corsair AX860
MB: MSI M Power MAX
Memory: Avexir 8Gb CL9 1.5v Dual chanell

I have come across with some annoying problems where i get some BSOD totaly randomly saying: Memory_Management
I have already RMA my motherboard (cause of other issue) and did a memtest86+ run on my memories. 0 errors happen on the test.

I have set the memory on the motherboard with the XMP profile that matches exactly the memory settings.

Im already feeling uncomfortable with the memories cause i dont know the brand at all, only bought them cause they would match the color of the motherboard, and some ppl told me that they would work fine and of course the specs were according to the hardware the 1st time i check on those.

I have a question regarding memories: Is it possible for me to use a 1.6v memories with my setup? some people said i shouldn't pass the 1.5v. but all i see now is memories with 2400mhz using 1.6v.

I would really apreciate a good answer for this question cause i would like to order a new models b4 4pm today cause im really sad that im investing so much money on my baby and getting those damn random BSOD.

Thanks for all you help in advance..

Cheers
Slice.
 
I usually only recommend Corsair, Gskill, or Kingston memory and of those it's usually Corsair that I tell people to use most. Any ram from these three suppliers tend to perform and last well. The Corsair Dom Plats are 2400@1.65 if I remember correctly and should run totally fine with a Z87 platform as the 1150 has really good memory controllers

I apreciate your answer, and yes, i am familiar with those brands, but thanks anyway.

Still my doubt persists on understanding if buying 1.6v memory would be bad cause im running an intel processor.
