"While all of the high-performance DRAM sticks tested by Gigabyte with its Z790 Aorus Master mainboard will likely be among the best RAM, there is one crucial thing to note about them. 1.4V – 1.5V voltages for DDR5 memory modules represent a 27% – 36% overvoltage compared to the JEDEC standard, which is a significant increase and will inevitably affect memory ICs and Intel's memory controller. We do not know the longevity of these memory modules and Intel's Raptor Lake CPUs, but significant overclocking usually also means a tradeoff between performance and longevity. "

just use negative offset for VTT termination voltage, that's usually what will degrade the IMC when using 1.5v+ on memory

running 1.58v on bdie here with my 5900x and have VTT set to 1.5v / 2 without affecting stability; prob can go lower
