Is it safe voltage for my pC?

Hi, I'm checking if the I7 6700K Z170 PRO with 4.5 overclocking is suitable for regular daily use at a voltage of 5V.

Voltage ranging from 1.25 to 1.27V at 4.5 GHz is typical for this 6700k chip, and it's perfectly normal for regular use.

Voltage ranging from 1.25 to 1.27V at 4.5 GHz is typical for this 6700k chip, especially during regular operation.

The voltage range of 1.25 to 1.27V is typical for the 6700k @ 4.5 GHz, which is what most people experience with this chip. It's completely normal for regular use. Please let me know if you'd like an explanation of the differences between CPU VCORE and VID. I believe CPU vcore equals voltage in BIOS plus or minus 2%, while VID represents the actual voltage with some uncertainty.

And threshold for i76700K=1.4?

VID is the voltage Intel promises to keep your CPU operating at its standard performance levels. When you're adjusting the VID, the VCORE you manually configure will take over. Vcore represents the real voltage applied to the CPU cores. Regarding the maximum voltage for the 6700k, I recommend staying below 1.4V for regular use.
