Go to solution Solved by SeanAngelo,

I am stuck at 4.3 GHz. At 4.4 it crahses in Cinebench or I get random bluescreens. I set max core voltage to 1.25V but it never even reaches 1.2V in Cinebench.

Any other settings I could tweak?

First time CPu overlclocker here so please go easy on me.

EDIT: Mobo is MSI Z77-GD65

If it crashes at 4.4ghz then you've reached your limit I think :/ Like you said, it never reached 1.25V so it shouldn't be your voltage that is causing the problem.

Are you increasing the base clock or the multiplier?

Multiplier. The baseclock is set to 10,000kHz.

Have you set your power settings in your BIOS to constantly deliver max voltage to your CPU?

No.
