If DDR ram is designed to run with a voltage of 2.5v, why does the NF7-S only give me the option of 2.6v or higher? Add to that the fact that the NF7-S overvolts the ram as well, so 2.72v is the lowest voltage possible for the ram. What is up with this? I have read that 2.7v should not hurt the ram at all, but it is still an issue I'm curious about.
