Today, I bought 8GB x 2 Crucial SO-DIMM 1600 1.35V memory, which for my DQ77KB + I7 3770T.

I saw some information show that lvy i7 only can use 1.5V memory??

reference here:

Desktop 3rd Gen Intel® Core™ Processor Family: Datasheet, Vol. 1

vol. 1 Intel 3rd Generation Processors, page 11
 
That spec sheet says that DDR3 is supported but DDR3L is not. That Crucial memory is DDR3.

1.5V is stock voltage and anything above is an overclock.

Lots of people are running 1.35V memory. I'm running it now on Sandy Bridge and others have Ivy Bridge setups.

Enjoy your build.
 
Generally, motherboard/cpu memory voltages are a ceiling, not a floor. It's not recommended that one use 1.65v memory with intel processors, but 1.35v is fine.
