How badly will this overclock affect the longevity of my 4670k?

Hey guys,
I've got an i5 4670k at 4.4 GHz. The Vcore is currently at 1.215, as that seems to be the sweet spot for this clock speed. After a few hours of AIDA64, average CPU temp was 65, but max it hit on any core was 75. This was only on one core. The max on all of the other cores was 71, according to Coretemp, AIDA64, and HWmonitor. So my question is, will this make my CPU life a lot shorter or what? Thanks for the help :).

Not at all. 1.215 is WELL within the safe voltage range for that chip, and 75 Celsius isn't anything to worry about, especially since it was a peak during stress testing.

Your chip will be well obsolete long before the overclock causes it to die earlier.
