Default No Current Performance Ram to Run on Future Intel X58 and Core i7
I hope this is more of a safety first approach by Intel...

However this makes me very happy I didn't go with a DDR3 setup in hopes of Future use..

Performance RAM will damage your Nehalem - The INQUIRER

Now however the article on the other thread showing the benchmarking of the X58 Intel board shows the Ram voltage being able to be set all the way to 2.5 volts way above the supposed 1.7 volts maximum. ?????
