Hey guys well This morning i overclocked my i7-4770k to @4.3ghz. Guys tell me if this is an ok specs for a new overclocker. Im not going to overclock it no more. because of the voltages keep going up.

Here are the Specs
cpu core ratio: 43
cpu core volatage: 1.165
dram frequency: 1600mhz [auto]
dram voltage" 1.536 max

note this though,on prime 95 stress tessing my cpu temps are in the 50-'s but my max voltage on the cpu goes to 1.186. Im not going to like I said overclock it more. Tell me if thats an OK OC for a new overclocker. Also I have a new psu. Its the HX750. Reason why I got this was for overclocking and good performance.

That is a very good OC with room to go further, if you so desire. Just keep your Vcore at no more than 1.300 v. and watch your core temps closely. I have found the program CoreTemp is very good for monitoring temps on Intel based systems. Keep core temps below 90*C. while stress testing and below 75*C for gaming and normal usage.

Most of the i7 can go to 4.6GHz without a large increase in CPU core voltage. Try increasing the multiplier again. You haven't even hit 1.2 yet, so you're still good. Going higher than 4.6 usually requires more aggressive settings, with which you may not be comfortable.

As you no doubt know, a good CPU cooler can also help with getting stable higher overclocking.
