I upgraded my RAM and checked my setup. I managed to reach 3733MHZ at 1866MHZ with stock timing, but I increased the voltage to 1.37V for better performance. Trying 1.4V didn’t work, so I stopped raising it. I also adjusted the timings but they didn’t help. Should I tweak both timing and frequency together? Also, I kept voltages steady—what’s the risk if I push the voltage too high?

I’d aim for 3600 16-16-16- (probably) 32

The highest DRAM voltage you should consider stopping at is typically around 1.2 volts, though it depends on your specific components and design requirements. Just remember they are Hynix devices.

I don't change characters in my setups (the idea feels a bit awkward with today's powerful hardware) so I'm not the right person to ask.

I've never seen RAM, but Farley claims it's over 1.375.
