How much is too much voltage

Hi, I'm just getting started in PC building and I have my CPU (Ryzen 3 2200g) on the way. I will be pairing it with an ASrock B450 Steel Legend Motherboard and a cooler master AIO. I was wondering how much voltage would be to much and what the highest clock speed i could get would be while still giving me a good lifespan on the chip.

Officially, max voltage you could safely run Ryzen 1st gen is around 1.42-45v. So going by that number, 1.35v should be the sweetspot for the chips lifespan on a daily system.
