Safe OC ideas available?
Consider using z97m d3h from Gigabyte.
Cooler option: FrostFlow 240l (AIO).
You mentioned thinking about 1.3v on 4.5—please confirm if that's correct.

Experiment with each CPU individually, keeping voltage within safe limits. Apply a voltage, use a multiplier, and test for stability. If stable, increase the multiplier step; if not, raise the voltage slightly and retest. Results vary—some CPUs reach 5 GHz at 1.27V, others at 4.4 GHz at 1.3V. This is just my observation.

Tried 1.254 at 4.5. That's the one I use. Verify your validation in your signature.

Adrian Ocampo tried 1.254 at 4.5 and found it works. He checked his validation in the signature. He experienced BSODs with the first option but succeeded with 4.4 using the same voltage.

BruhLovin shares his experience with Adrian Ocampo. He tried version 1.254 at 4.5 and found it works well, matching his signature validation. He encountered BSODs with the first option but succeeded with 4.4 using the same voltage. He suggests adjusting the voltage or modifying the multiplier for better results.
