I have the Noctua NH-D14.

The temps never goes higher than 45 degrees in 100% load.

How much do you guys think I will be able to OC?

More about : 4770k

Assuming you have a good chip, lets go with 4.7 GHz.

But there's no other way of finding out how far you can push your CPU until you actually do it.

Depends on your chip, should be an easy 4.2 or 4.3 with a half decent cooler. If you get a golden chip with a good cooler, 4.8 is possible.

How much V should it be? 1.2?

How long is a piece of string?

Like everyone says, it depends on how lucky you got with your processor; some can clock higher than others.

I'd imagine something around 1.23V would suffice for 4.4Ghz, going on my figure of 4.2Ghz and 1.2V (different processor mind). The easiest way to find out is to leave the voltage on auto and check what it uses. Then, use that as a benchmark to reduce the voltage until your rig becomes unstable.

Lol, thanks, not many people remember that particular Python sketch. :)
