Can't get my CPU faster than 4.6 gigahertz when using a 6700K graphics card.

Guess me lucky with my fast processor on a 6700k at 1.4v, right? I know something is going to break eventually, so I got myself a good cooling solution already. It's an Arctic Liquid Freezer II 240mm AIO, and honestly it just works great for me. And don't even get me started on the CPU choice... not all chips are created equal! Some run hotter than others, and that's why you need to pick your numbers carefully.
My processor runs at 4.3 ghz and uses a 1.15 volt power supply instead of the normal 1.2 volts. That lower voltage feels like too much stress, even though it keeps things stable when I overclock to that speed.
