The Haswell iMacs support both "normal" 1.5 V DDR3 and "low voltage" 1.35 V DDR3L SODIMMs. In order to operate at the lower voltage level (which consumes less power and generates less heat), you must use all DDR3L modules, otherwise they will operate at 1.5 V since the memory bus can only be driven at a single voltage.

Does this new iMac support the normal DDR3-type RAM and is it possible to combine the two?
