Low Voltage Memory Modules (DDR3L DIMMs) Intel Xeon 5600 series processors support DDR3L DIMMs enabling a lower operating voltage (1.35 V) that ensures memory power savings up to 20% per DIMM. DDR3L memory is backward-compatible to Intel Xeon 5500 series and operates at standard voltage (1.5 V) without any limitations. Operating the system memory at a lower voltage may cause restrictions to additional frequency and memory population capabilities. For example, populating three memory modules
