Safe CPU voltage limit?

[TheMidnightNarwhal]

I'm currently at 1.28 core voltage at 4.5ghz. I WANT MORE.  Is there a safe limit I shouldn't surpass or if I got the cooling it's a ok?

CPUs are really hard to break these days even by overvolting too hard. That being said for longevity, I wouldn't go over 1.35 volts, maybe even 1.4.

 

 

 

Hmm alright. I think I'll stay at 1.29 and 4.5ghz. It's getting tiring to reboot try again, reboot etc.

I'm assuming it's the 4670K that shows on your profile. I wouldn't go past 1.35V.
