hello this is my spec: ASUS TUF Gaming Z590-PLUS Gskill TridentZ 2x8 16.0GB 3200MHz Intel Core i7 Rocket-lake 11700 until now I didn't know XMP exist I always change my ram's mhz manually via bios now I heard from one of my friends that I should use XMP instead of manually because it sets proper voltage and latency. with xmp voltage 1.35 without xmp voltage 1.504 i also uploaded ss for better information (first one is xmp second is without xmp) so which one is better? what should i do?? i dont know anything about what voltage or latency is good or bad so im happy if u educate me about it and guide me ty

usually there is no reason to go for higher voltage unless you need it. higher voltage is required usually for better stability, usually. I would say go for the lower voltage option just so your memory last more in the long run

You've been using your Trident Z Rams for six years at high voltages, and they're still functioning well. For best results, consider XMP timings or manual timings at lower voltage settings. This helps maintain performance and stability in your new rig.

If you're comfortable with the high voltage configuration so far, proceed; otherwise, consider alternatives since it may not offer any advantages. If it doesn’t work... it’s just a loss of efficiency.
