The I5 4670k at 4.2ghz with 1.200v is a solid setup, but ensure it fits your system's requirements and stability.

i'm using the i5 4670k at 4.2ghz with 1.200v, and it's running smoothly after a 6-hour burn test. nothing went wrong? can i try overclocking further?? my setup includes msi z97s sli krait edition, a cooler master hyper n620 with dual fans, and excellent case airflow.
Is the maximum it can reach at 1.2? Have you experimented with 4.3? If that’s the case, it works well for your CPU. All 4670Ks operate differently, running at various speeds under different voltages. For example, during some testing on a 4770K, I found the following link helpful: http://www.hardocp.com/article/2013/06/0...3NxYesrJD_
Tradesman1 is asking about performance limits and testing results. They mention trying different speeds and voltages, referencing a specific article about overclocking Intel processors. They also shared their experience with 4.2ghz at 1.15v and switching to 1.2ghz for stability.
Within limits, voltages aren't as crucial as temperatures. What are your readings? If they're normal, it's safe to aim for or surpass 1.300V (though I'm not sure).
I had to set it to 1.230v to function at 4.3ghz temps, which are 47 idle and max 66-67.
Is that acceptable?
This guide is a good overclocking resource. With proper cooling and a solid chip, I anticipate reaching 4.5 to 4.6 GHz.
I’d need to check your BIOS settings for more assistance.
What type of memory are you using? I used 2400Mhz to achieve a top 4.8Ghz overclock.
