RAM overclocking

[AWT]

Hi. I want to overclock my RAM; you can find my full system specs in my profile.
How do I go about it? What settings should I set? I want to switch it to 1,4V for everyday use.
Thanks in advance for any advice. I will post my CPU-Z and Thaiphoon readings in a reply below.

ram does not like to be overclocked
if it would be stable at higher speeds or lower timigns it would be sold as that for a higher premuim price

the cpu imc can be safely overclocked to the rams xmp spec

post the cpuz validation link
will show what ram you have, and what specs its running at

Since Steam won't let me share images, I uploaded the screenshots to my google drive.

You can sometimes OC RAM by a few Mhz and lower the timings by 1ms. That's often about the only bit of flexibility they have. It's not like GPU VRAM where you can OC a couple hundred Mhz. No way.

I did have some 1600 DDR3 that no issues running at 1866; but trust me, this is very rare, even more-so with DDR4 and DDR5 since they are so high already anyways. You basically would gain less then a 1% gain of any kind on DDR4 or DDR5 by going up 100Mhz and down all the timings by 1ms.

The problem is that even if the OC seems good enough to where the BIOS POSTS and the OS loads. A random error at a later time "could" happen When it does it could corrupt whatever data it was handling. This would really suck if you were in the middle of some serious content creation and lost it all because the entire system hard-locks.

I guess I'll have to stick to the XMP settings stored on the RAM in that case. Thanks for the advice.

Frequency 1596.2 MHz (DDR4-3192) - Ratio 1:16
Timings 16-18-18-36-75-1 (tCAS-tRCD-tRP-tRAS-tRC-tCR)

thats about the limit for the ram kit
1600 mhz = ddr 3200

you will be lucky to get much faster than its xmp spec

Hynix ICs should be able to operate at ≈1.4 -1.43 V daily.

Higher voltage will allow you to have lower tCL, but tRCD and tRP cannot go lower. That's why you can't get a higher frequency further, unless you start increasing them. How much more Ryzen 1000 memory controller can handle?
