does increasing ram voltage will increase its transfer rate? My motherboard supports 1.8v to 2.2v automatically it sets 1.8v

The increase in voltage is for faster (or higher performance See: lower timings) memory to perform the way its supposed to. Raising voltage above the rated amount for the kit will not make a kit run faster. Some ram requires different voltages, that is why the numbers can be moved.

Increasing RAM voltage could damage your RAM etc. And As far as I know increasing the voltage won't increase the transfer rate.

RAM voltage normally depends on the RAM thats installed. Check the specs of your ram and what voltage they should be running at.

CPUZ doesn't tell you what voltage its running at, it shows you what the memory is rated for. The tab that shows what it is ACTUALLY running at is the memory tab which has no value for Voltage, the SPD tab that you are likely looking at basically means nothing. If everything is stable a 1.92v it won't hurt anything I'd just leave it there.
