There are various options that could work, though each has its own challenges. For most users seeking assistance, practical solutions tend to be the best fit. I’ve heard of cases achieving 4.6Ghz and successfully passing stress tests, which suggests it’s achievable. However, even those examples were from high-end CPUs labeled as "golden samples." To reach 4.7Ghz and pass a full battery of tests, you’d likely need a "God sample" processor, which would also demand sub-ambient cooling—making the practical side difficult to meet.
Yes, it works at 1.2V but isn't stable.
At 1.45V it becomes stable with temperatures between 80-85°C and a frequency of 4.6GHz.
80-85C what's happening? If just idling, it does sound a bit concerning, doesn't it? But 1.45V seems quite high for continuous operation. In regular use, such high voltages would only appear briefly, especially when temperatures are low and not likely to occur at 85°C. Maintaining this level might be leading to its gradual failure.
It's still within the safe limits, but it might be a bit warm for a 5500. What cooler are you running?
