I previously had my i5-4690K overclocked to 4.2GHz on 1.2V stable on my Cooler Master Hyper 212 EVO, i wanted to push it a bit further to 4.4GHz. I have managed to get it there without any blue screens so far or any misbehaviour of the system. The voltage is now set to 1.25 with the max temperature on the hottest core being 68C, just confirming that these settings are safe and I am aware not to go past 1.3 volts which I will not do 

 

Thanks!

No bsods and temps under 85°C under stress testing is safe. Voltage can go up to 1.35 but you'll need a beefier cooler for that.

 

You're good to go :)
