It depends on the RAM. Usually SPD 2133Mhz is 1.2V and 3200Mhz and higher 1.35V to 1.4V.

HWmonitor or any hardware monitor software should show the DRAM voltage.
You can also use AMD Ryzen Master Utility. It shows DRAM Voltag as well.

Hello,
The voltage you see in monitoring depends on where the power line is tapped, and you would need the right equipment (oscilloscope) in order to be able to see any fast transient changes. The actual voltage received will be closer to what is being set.

The same can be said for any other monitored value...voltage, clock, temps even. So by your logic we should dispense with it all I suppose.
But you're wrong. To many examples of people hooking up a DMM to a voltage test point to find the 'set' value is way off from the 'get' value...mine included. Monitored values may not be perfect, but it beats probing tiny spots on chip-cap solder pads and risking damage.
And besides, I'm talking about DRAM voltage, not CPU voltage. DRAM should be as close to rock steady as possible so if it's fluctuating wildly that alone is important to know so I can get the board RMA'd. And lastly, I'm not looking for ripple or other side-band effects, just average DC values.

Best that we leave these things to electrical engineers and laymen such as us don't go in head strong into these subjects! 🙂

That's such an antidiluvian response that sounds like we should all just ignore monitoring clocks and voltages when tweaking and overclocking (noting you moved the question to a new forum). Let's just go back to the dark ages of blind overclocking, just pump up the voltage and don't worry about it. great.

And no, you don't need an oscilloscope as a responsive DMM works just fine for measuring DC voltages values (that's why they make the darn things) and however imperfect monitoring is it's easily calibrated against one.
thanks for the non-help.
