Oc Ram dangerous?

[Intel HD Graphics]

can overclocking ram really damage my ram or the DIMMs on my motherboard permanently

It's the voltage that can damage them, not an fsb increase. Your RAM manufacturer should have a maximum voltage statistic somewhere.

so if i lower the higher the latency and increace the frequency i will get a boost of performance ( even just a little boost ) and not damage my ram ?

can you please clarify what you mean by this?

A while ago i was told to do this : 

 Manually set vDIMM to 1.35v, VCCIO to 1.14, VCCSA to 1.15, and set the memory frequency to 3000mhz. Set your primary timings as such: 15-17-17-34-2 (2 being command rate). Try to restart and see if the PC posts. If it does not post, clear CMOS and try C16-18-18-36-2. That should post.

As I already said, it is only overvoltaging that can damage a RAM or DIMMs. Do what you want with them, just keep them below the maximum safe voltage.

How can i find the max safe voltage ?

Your manufacturer should have it somewhere on their site. If you want, I can have a look for you, just tell me what your RAM kit is. I'll be away for the next 30mins but I'll get back to you ASAP.

Are all of these voltages safe for G.SKILL Ripjaws V Series 8GB (2 x 4GB) DDR4 2133Mhz CL15 1.2v Desktop Memory Model F4-2133C15D-8GVR 15-15-15-35 ?

May I ask, why oc the ram?

Better performance ?

Ok, so what I've found is that the max safe voltage for ddr4 modules is 1.35v, or 1.4v in the case of 4133mHz+ clocked modules. For you, 1.35v is the max.

Overclocking ram can give somewhat higher fps.

If i set the voltage at 1.35 will it damage it or lower the lifetime ?
