So i have a Asus mobo and on it i cant change the cpu voltage because whenever i try to it always just go to the voltage limit. Like when i put in 1.500v it goes directly to 1.700v. I am running the latest bios btw

You shouldn't use 1.5V on any CPU (even though you havent mentioned it, which you should) anyway. Even on AMD FX it's not good for its health.

CPU: i7-2600K 4751MHz 1.44V (software) --> 1.47V at the back of the socket Motherboard: Asrock Z77 Extreme4 (BCLK: 103.3MHz) CPU Cooler: Noctua NH-D15 RAM: Adata XPG 2x8GB DDR3 (XMP: 2133MHz 10-11-11-30 CR2, custom: 2203MHz 10-11-10-26 CR1 tRFC:230 tREFI:14000) GPU: Asus GTX 1070 Dual (Super Jetstream vbios, +70(2025-2088MHz)/+400(8.8Gbps)) SSD: Samsung 840 Pro 256GB (main boot drive), Transcend SSD370 128GB PSU: Seasonic X-660 80+ Gold Case: Antec P110 Silent, 5 intakes 1 exhaust Monitor: AOC G2460PF 1080p 144Hz (150Hz max w/ DP, 121Hz max w/ HDMI) TN panel Keyboard: Logitech G610 Orion (Cherry MX Blue) with SteelSeries Apex M260 keycaps Mouse: BenQ Zowie FK1

Your mobo is likely using Offset when inputting voltage.

 

Also 1,5 volts would pretty quickly kill a modern CPU.

Are you completely noob in overclocking? If so, you should do some testing. Run short stress test (15mins) to test stability. If you are going for scoreboards, you need to be able to finish 3DMark or some other benchmark keeping scores. Also note that not all CPUs, nor mobo's can do that high OC. You actually need mobo which has capabale power transfer for such high voltages (dual CPU power connectors). Normal OC voltage is 1.25-1.35V, or if cooling can take it, up to 1.45V (OC3D tested this in some video with "angel" chip)

What software you use for testing and what's your cooling? Have you tried with smaller increases with voltage?

 

Also, since it's most likely adaptive setting with offset, have you already disabled any automatic features that may mess up things? ASUS MCE, Intel Speedstep, turbo boost, C-States?

You can oc your cpu to 5.3, but for what? You didn't notice any difference except shortening lifespan of your CPU.
