I have my 2700 non-x at 4GHz with a 1.36V load line, BIOS set to level 2. My motherboard is a B450 Tomahawk. I'm using a 360mm AIO with six Vardar black fans in push-pull configuration inside my ENTHO PRIME case and an MX-4 turbo. I'm trying to check if I can push the 2700 up to at least 4.2GHz. I've seen some chips reach around 4.3, but that's mostly luck with the silicon. My main concern isn't temperature—it's getting inconsistent info about safe maximum Vcore. For the 2700, I need it to last 3-4 years without degradation. What's the highest Vcore I can safely use so it doesn't wear out over time? Also, jumping to 4GHz or 4.2 wouldn't really improve gaming performance much.

Typically around 1.425-1.45V works best. 4100mhz feels much easier to handle.

It’s tough to exceed 2700X at 4.15GHz without needing very high voltage. That 2700 is ideal for 4GHz performance.
