I'm just starting out with overclocking and don't have much experience. When I try to set the overclock to 4.4 ghz in the BIOS, my computer won't start up at all, even with the highest voltage I can give it. I've tried a maximum of 1.4v, which seems quite high. I'm unsure if I've made a mistake or if something is wrong. If anyone has any advice, I'd really appreciate it.

Rig:
i7 6700k
GTX 1070
ASUS z170-a motherboard
Corsair Vengeance 16gb 2400mhz RAM
Corsair Hydro H75 CPU Cooler
Feel free to share any additional details if you have them.
