Not a stock cooler, right? That helps a lot.
The 50c price is quite reasonable, giving you good flexibility. Just keep going and try "Properly" until you either reach high temperatures (85-90c or whatever feels okay) or stop being able to overclock the CPU.
I can't suggest a specific max voltage yet—you haven't confirmed the cooler model yet.
"FPS drops from 300 to 200 or lower in CS:GO" – why do you need 300fps? Do you have a monitor that supports 300Hz?

Completely dependent on your processor. You could reach up to 4.5GHz, but it's unlikely to exceed 4.21GHz. The best way to confirm is by testing.

Yes, you can try increasing the voltage.

It's functioning at 4.3 GHz with 1.26V. Can the voltage be raised?
This depends a lot on your cooling system and the conditions during the full stress test.
You haven't shared key details—do you have the standard Intel cooler, an aftermarket air cooler, or something else? Also, what are your temperatures (30°C or 130°C)?

I don't have a stock cooler. The CPU temperature is about 50°C on ORTHOS at 4.3 GHz. I require a faster CPU for CS:GO and other demanding games. I own a GeForce GTX 970, but FPS drops from 300 to 200 or lower in CS:GO.
