BIOS settings - need changed for this RAM

This review is from: CORSAIR XMS3 4GB (2 x 2GB) DDR3 1600 (PC3 12800) Desktop Memory Model CMX4GX3M2A1600C9
Pros:
Very fast and good quality RAM
Cons:
Just built this system and it was very unstable - multiple lock ups a day. After further investigation the voltage in the BIOS needed adjusted. Most if not all will set the 'auto' voltage too low (1.5v) where these sticks need 1.65v to operate without any problems.
Overall Review:
Most users would not know to do this - I've built systems for years and never had to change the voltage. My system is rock solid now so hopefully this will help others..:
