Solution
Too much voltage or high temperatures can damage the DIMMs.
I'm 80% sure it's safe,but if there's any issues,then you know that the OC'd RAM is the problem.
I still wouldn't OC,dou.I would buy some better RAM.
It's totally up to you.

Then you should have no problem OCing you memory to 1600MHz.
I would still get some higher quality RAM,like Kingston HyperX Beast 2x4GB @ 1866 MHz(since you do rendering)
But your Adata RAM should do the job.
All the best.

Cool, so it safe to OC memory that doesnt have a heatsink?
Because I'm worried it will overheat.

Ok I got it thank you!
I will just get some Kingston Fury Ram when I have the money.
Because as far as I know they don't have crazy heatsinks and they will fit with my noctua nh d14.

No wonder you OC'd your i7 to 4.6 GHz.
Yea,get those when you save some money,it's a better idea.You can damage your motherboard if you damage the DIMMs.
All the best.

Ocing the 4790k was a peace of cake, it only needed about 1.232v and it stays under 72C. (ambiet 20C)
I guess I got lucky.
