Do I need to Undervolt my 7950x3d? Here is also how to set your EXPO on an Asus Motherboard

You can turn on EXPO, you just have to manually make sure that the SOC voltage is not set above 1.3V. Personally I'd go in and manually set it to 1.2V no matter what, that should be plenty for most CPUs and it should be plenty safe.
Also, do note that DRAM voltage and SOC voltage are not the same thing and not directly related. Most motherboards will automatically raise the VSOC if you change the DRAM frequency, either manually or through something like EXPO, hence why it gets raised when you enable EXPO, but the EXPO profile doesn't include an SOC voltage as that's handled purely by the motherboard's BIOS. DRAM voltage interacts with a different portion of the IO die and has not been linked to CPU death. Running your memory at 1.4V is fine just as long as the SOC voltage is below 1.3V.
