CPU voltage or RAM voltage?

 

1.4v-1.45v should be fine on the RAM for 24/7 use.

On the CPU, up to 1.42v~ is safe for 24/7 if you have a good cooler.

Hi! ^^

I've bought the cheapest RAM for my build keeping in mind, that I can OC it later if I will need. It is Crucial 2133 MHz 

It woks perfectly fine with 2464 (2400 memory + 102.7 BCLK) MHz and timings are 1 step lower. 

Volatge is 1.23V

My CPU is i5-6500.

Didn't found any useful information about safe RAM voltages for skylake. How far I can go with voltage for everyday use?
