I'd stick to 1.4v, no idea how good your mobo's core voltage regulation is.

hello, 

i've had extremely good luck on the msi 970a-g46 board, and overclocking the 965 black at 1.4v and getting it to 4.2ghz on that board with air cooling. never ran hot, and never throttled. Paired it with a gtx 970 and it was wonderful.
