First time overclocking got some questions

Hey guys! I'm a first time poster, long time viewer off LTT and I'm finally dipping my toes into overclocking. I have a Asus strix board so I decided to see how the AI overclocking performed while I did some reading on manually tuning, but I'm concerned that it may be putting too much voltage through my CPU at 1.354 volts. What are your guys thoughts on this and my build in general? any advice would be greatly appreciated, thanks!  

 

CPU: Intel i7-10700K

CPU Cooler: NH-U14S (single fan, thinking about adding a second)

Graphics Card: Nvidia EVGA GTX-1070 FTW

Motherboard: ASUS ROG Strix Z490-A Gaming

RAM: 2x8GB Corsair vengeance LPX 2933mhz

PSU: Corsair CX-M Series CX750M 750 Watt 80 PLUS Bronze Certified

OS: Win10 

 

I ran a CPU stress test on intel extreme tuning utility for an hour and got these numbers

CPU held steady at 4.8GHZ and was stable

Average CPU temp: 65C

Max temp: 84C

1.354v is pretty safe for Vcore, just make sure it doesnt do anything to VCCSA or VCCIO as that's not needed to run 2933MHz RAM. 4.8GHz is really conservative for this voltage on 10th gen though

^ this 

you can probably push to 5ghz without any additional voltage
