How Much Voltage is Too Much Voltage for my Ryzen 7 2700X?

Basically, I'm curious what voltages I should avoid in overclocking my 2700X. It's currently at 1.45v and I have it pinned to the boost speed of 4.3GHz. I'd like to get more out of it if I can. Should I give 'er more, or am I pushing it?

 

And on a separate note, is it strange that my computer crashes when I try to run Cinebench, but it seems like everything else is working just fine? Even Minecraft, and from what I understand, it typically is pretty heavy on CPU.

 

Any way, thanks in advance, all!

are you using load line calibration?

Uhhh... No. What is that?

It keeps the voltage from dropping when the cpu is under load, you need to turn it up. (Probs bring the voltage down also)

And how do I go about doing that? I'm using Ryzen Master, but I could swap to the BIOS if need be.

you need use bios, disable all ryzen master stuff first.

Did some checking, and apparently my MoBo (AORUS X470 Gaming 5) doesn't have load line calibration.
