hi. thanks for the support. is it possible to damage the ram when tweaking it or will it just crash? thanks
It is possible, but it's generally when you input insanely high voltages, like >1.1V SOC voltage or >1.5V DRAM voltage, it will slowly degrade after running it for a long time (months to years). If you input something way too low like DRAM voltage or timings, then it just wont train. It's very hard to actually damage ram during overclocking.
