I recently got a new computer with an i5 4690k and a hyper 212 evo. I'm new to CPU overclocking and was wondering if my clocks / voltages / temps were fine. I manged to get 4.5Ghz @ 1.2v and while using the computer during gaming the CPU would get to about 71C. I thought it was a little high so I lowered it to 4.4GHz @ 1.15v and the temps are about low 60s during gaming. In order to get 4.6Ghz I need 1.26v so I can't do that. Are my 4.5Ghz temps ok for gaming and moderate-heavy workload? Or should I stick with the 4.4Ghz? Also would it be good to raise the voltage by about 0.01 or 0.005 after I found a stable overclock by running prime95 on blend for an hour?
 
Solution
the 4.4 overclocks seems like ur best bet u dont want he cpu getting too hot.

id stick with 4.4 for best performance and best temps :)

anything above u prob wont see a real world difference anyhow
