1.65v isnt needed in all cases for ram. My modules are rock solid at 1600 Mhz, 6-8-6-20 1T at just 1.59v and 1.275 QPI.

I have great ram, a great mobo, and a rubbish CPU that spazzes out at 4.2 Ghz, and requires a hefty 1.33v to work at 4 Ghz.

I plan on keeping the CPU until it burns out or is completely obsolete though, I cant be bothered with buying a new one for a chance of a better overclock / lower volts, nor do I want to downgrade my mobo to sandybridge.
