The motif here is a 'just because I can' attitude rather than a specific need for pushing the clockspeed higher. With that in mind, based on the temps in the below screenshot what would you guys recommend I can push the 5820k to? At the moment it's pushing 4.5GHz@ 1.3V

Both the CPU and GPU are in a custom loop with a single 420mm radiator with the fans as intake.

Ahh okay, so the CPU starts throttling at 80C? Well I got it to 4.6GHz on the same voltage which runs stable on AIDA64 and the temps don't really increase much at all. Sorry but I'm only familiar with overclocking on the AMD platform, this is my first time on Intel and don't really know the parameters that well

Na will go good bit higher before throttling, but IMO I would keep it around 80'c for max temps.
