Memory auto xmp profile 2400mhz DDR3 DRAM voltage 1.515 instead of rated 1.65v?
Why is the auto dram voltage displaying 1.515 rather than 1.65v?
Should I manually adjust it to 1.65v?
Or is it probably acceptable as it is if my PC is functioning correctly so far?
Should I perform a memory test or check further?
G.SKILL Ripjaws X Series 16GB (x2, total installed 32GB)

1.5v serves as the standard voltage for DDR3
1.65v is used for overclocking, either to boost frequency or reduce latency

I adjusted the setting to 1.65v and ran a one-hour pcbdestroyer configuration using testmem5. Everything worked smoothly!

I also needed to increase my CPU overclock by 10mv.
From 1.395v to 1.405v!!
To achieve a stable 4.6ghz with my 3770k.
My temperature hits around 80-82*C during the hottest cores.
