Hi! friends
My rig specs are
maximus 6 hero
i5 4670 k
kingston hyperx blu 1600mhz 8gb 1 stick

when i enable xmp profile the voltage is set to 1.500v but its original value reaches around 1.519v approx and intel made it clear, if voltage is above 1.500v it will void warranty. So my question is it ok to enable xmp profile.
May be the rise in voltage is due to extra +/- voltage given in bios (i don't know what is called)
 
Solution
Yes, and the voltage is fine, Intel has certification list for DRAM up through 1.65. You often will see slight fluxutions from spec voltage often due to the mobo BIOS
