high SA an IO voltages?

[diabloinfinnity]

when i overclock my ram using memory try it on my msi z170 m5 it sets the SA an IO voltage of my 6700k to 1.25.

it shows up in red for a warning, is this safe and what are safe voltages?

Anything under 1.4 volts and stable are fine for the CPU, if you have a good cooler. For the stock cooler, I wouldn't recommend over 1.3 volts.

1.2v Vccio and 1.25v Vccsa, though it's better for your memory controller if you keep Vccio below 1.15V and Vccsa below 1.2V. The memory controller is a really fragile piece in CPU and they often just die in a sudden, unlike CPU cores which degrade over time even if you push too much current and voltage into them. In other words, memory controllers are far less forgiving in taking some beating.

Do you know what's Vccsa and Vccio?
