Don't worry, Its just an unlucky CPU, You need to drop the clock multiplier to make it stable. You can Increase the Vcore, but I wouldn't recommend pushing into 1.4 Volts. Even so 1.4 Volts can cause some serious temps at 100% load, hope you have some good cooling!
If it makes you feel any better, I can't even boot 4.5GHz at 1.45V
