As mentioned in the title, I was pushing a 4690k to 4.4 ghz at 1.200v while playing CSGO. After installing Corsair H60, my temperatures stayed between 30-37°C idle and 40-43°C during gameplay. I’ve seen others reach 4.4 and some even higher at lower voltages. Should I increase the voltage further or should I adjust the voltage ratio to protect the CPU?

I would increase the voltage to 1.22 and observe the results. Values below 1.3V are completely safe, and you wouldn't require such high levels otherwise.

I would increase the voltage to 1.22 and observe the results. Values below 1.3V are completely safe, and you wouldn't require such high levels in the first place.

You can reach speeds up to 1.25v. As long as the temperatures stay under 70c during playtime and the voltage remains below 1.3v, your CPU will remain operational.
