I have just overclocked my i7-4790k to 4.7GHZ at 1.275V. Is this a decent overclock? Is it stable? The idle temps stay below 50 and IntelBurnTest says that it is stable when on the preset 'High'

I was stable at 4.6GHz at 1.225V but when I switched to 4.8GHz I tried 1.275V and 1.25V and IBT immediately stated that it was not stable
