Link doesn't work.
Could take the side off the case this will eliminate if it's air flow issue within the case .if it doesn't change might just be your chip.
Did you have a read of the overclocking guide I linked?
What voltage did your chip run at stock ?

That is a little high ,every chip is different.
The issue with haswell is the silicon holding the ihs on is to thick on some chips.
I have a 4770k and at 4.4 1.22v mine is 65-70 gaming tho I do have a different cooler.
If your worried about it drop your OC down a bit to reduce the voltage needed or set the cooler to full speed all the time.
What are your ambient temperatures?
