I'm using a Teamgroup TForce 16GB Kit (8x8) DDR4 3200 MHz RAM. The packaging mentions a voltage of 1.35V, but I'm considering setting it to 1.4V. I often use my PC for gaming and work, sometimes running it for up to 12 hours straight. Is it safe to increase the RAM voltage to 1.4V?

A voltage of 1.35V and 1.4V are actually pretty standard for XMP profiles, so it's generally safe. Just make sure your system has good cooling. If you're not tuning other settings, though, just raising the voltage without reason might not be the best move.
I recently switched motherboards and noticed only one XMP profile available on my new board. It's weird because my old board had two. Anyone know why that could happen?
1.4V is not too far above the standard, but if you experienced smoother gaming at that voltage, it could help with any stuttering issues. Just make sure you monitor the temperature and performance while gaming.
