I5 2500k high temps on 4.6Ghz

I have an i5 2500k, with an Asus z68 mobo and cm 612s with 2 fans, with a 850w corsair psu

 

When auto clocked in the bios to 4.6 it can get into the high 90s (Celsius) with HWMonitor showing 1.411vcore,trying to do offset or fixed voltage can't get it stable on below 1.4v to run cooler(thermal paste is arctic mx4) 

Any help on better settings, guides or recommendations, would be appreciated. 

 

Thanks in advance!

Overclocking increases heat output, that's what happens. If you want lower temperatures either decrease the clocks and voltages, or get a cooler capable of handling more heat.

For sure decrease the voltages 1.411v is a sure fire way to shorten the hell out of what life that cpu has left.

iirc max temps on sandy was 60-65C regardless of what the specs say, you are killing the chip at 90, 1.42v 60C degraded my chip rather quickly

i am using a beaffy CM 612s i thought it could candle that, i cant drop the voltage below 1,4 gets unstable, could its life been so decressed for running on 4,5Ghz on previous owner all auto?
