Should I raise the voltage for the RAM?

HyperX Fury 2x8GB DDR (2400Mhz)
I gradually raised the speed to 2933Mhz and am hoping to reach 3000Mhz.
The present voltage is 1.2V. Should I adjust it?

at 3gHz+ it's advised to apply 1.35v, undervolting at this frequency isn't unusual; if successful, it reduces power consumption.

raise it once the RAM stops functioning at its present voltage.
test with 3000 and check if it works. if not, increase the voltage until it does. there isn't a fixed value, just trial and error while adjusting

I'm currently at 3000, looks good, I'll keep it there.
EDIT: Just experienced a blue screen, increased to 1.25x, will check if it's okay.

test it thoroughly to be certain. when idle it might work, but pushing the system to its limits could cause issues. it helps avoid future troubleshooting if unexpected problems arise.

Stress test appears acceptable. I plan to play games afterward. Present voltage is 1.25V.

Had a crash in cyberpunk yesterday. Upped to 1.3v and everything is fine now. Could use a bit more FPS, but game starts faster than before.

it appeared promptly, making it clear what the issue was.
happy it's functioning for you.
