Should my RAM Voltage Be This High??

So let me give a brief background. I just built a Ryzen 5 1600x on an Asus ROG Strix b350-f with the g.skill ripjaws 3000mhz CAS15 (F4-3000C15D-16GRBB). When I turned on DOCP or if I manually bring up the DIMM settings anywhere above 2133, it would crash at POST. Someone had told me to raise the voltage to 1.4v and that still crashed it. I raised it to 1.41v and it is now stable. But looking at it now, I'm thinking that voltage is too high as I am reading folks that are running theirs around the 1.3x volt mark. Am I running it too high? It's at 3000mhz now at 1.41v.
 
Solution
1.45 v is definitely a limit. I suggest you go back to 1.35v and use whatever highest stable speed you can get. You won't notice speed difference.
