My Cpu Ryzen 7 7700 

Motherboard MSI PRO B650M-B 

RAM XPG LANCER CL46 5600mhz

When i enable Expo to enable my profile i see that my SoC/NB Voltage increases to 1.3-1.314 it vary in this range but i heared it will decrease cpu life and some says it will bring your cpu on fire i have SoC voltage on Auto i also manually overclocked my cpu and ram 

CPU at 5.3Ghz@1.1v Quite Stable 

Ram at cl36-44-44-80 6000Mhz @ 1.4DRAM and SoC on auto and VDDiO at 1.25v

is that fine or do i need to set my SoC to manually but i feel manually doesnt feel great i feel sometimes hitchy on pc performance may be my placebo but you'll say it will degrade my cpu i will limit the recommended voltage by you

I personally don't like over-clocking my systems anymore, but I used to do that maybe a decade ago.  The key thing to watch is your core / hotspot temperature of the over-clocked device.  If the CPU is getting anywhere near 90 C, I would back off on the voltage or at least improve the cooling solution.  The cooler a CPU runs, the longer it should last, all other things being equal.  That's my opinion, based on my earlier experience as a Reliability Engineer working with space-qualified components.  Things like metal migration and other problems (outgassing) with increased die temperatures can affect the life of active components.
