Hello everyone

I need your help. I simply bought DDR3 1600 MHz 4 GB 1.5V RAM, but then I realized that after checking the official site with my PC, it said I needed DDR3L 1600 MHz 4 GB. From what I've found, DDR3L corresponds to 1.35V, and as mentioned earlier, I have 1.5V RAM. If I install the RAM I currently have, will my PC be at risk of having issues?
Thank you for your response, have a great day!

    Hello
    The DD3L = [(L) Low voltage] so under 1.35V

    If your PC is normally 1.5V, it should handle 1.35V without any problem
    but the other way around can cause overheating, or worse...
    You need to test it..
    In any case, returning the sticks, whether they were installed or not, will be impossible
    the packaging is open!
    So in the best-case scenario, resale.. but at used price!

    If not open, check with the purchase site or store if the exchange is possible.
