Hey, just a quick heads-up—something around 4.1 to 4.2GHz should work. My setup is a Noctua Nh-u12s with the Nox Hummer ZX case. Thanks!

Keep the CPU below 1.300V and maintain a temperature under 80°C. It should be possible to reach around 4.5GHZ by increasing the voltage and clock speeds.

The optimal approach is to gradually raise the multiplier or mhz until instability occurs or the system overheats, then reduce it slightly afterward. You should test starting at 4.1 and increment by 0.1 each time.
