Any tips for final overclock?

With 1.3v I can get my CPU to about 4.5-4.6Ghz with a varying amount of stability and at 4.7Ghz it posts but won't boot into Windows. i tried upping CPU PLL my 0.10v but that didn't do anything for stability and i can't push my CPU voltage any higher because i'm limited by the capabilities of my CPU heatsink.

It's just the Silicon Lottery.

You could try 1.35v but there really is no need just for 100MHz..

 

4.6GHz is fine and that's all I can manage on mine

yea but I think my CPU could go slightly higher if I had a better cooler.

The voltage required scales so it would be best to put it under water if you wanted to go any higher. I could only hit 4.5 at 1.3v before it scales terribly. I need around 1.45v to have a 4.7 relatively stable.

Maybe.  I'm not sure I'd be comfortable with 90 degrees at full load anyway.
