the short answer is this:

raise your clock multiplier by one unit, reboot, and run prime 95. repeat until you get failures or crashes, then raise your voltage by one unit until its stable again. all the while watching that your temps dont above 80c (some might say this is too high). just keep in mind that running prime 95 does not reflect real world usage, so can get high temps while running and know that when gaming, you will never get to that level of usage.

in reality, no one can say how far you can go or what is exactly safe because every piece of silcon is different.

im sorry friend but it doesnt work like that. no ones overclock is the same. every chip is different, even with the same models. you have to do trial and error yourself. ocing your cpu is not easy and quick. i couldnt give you my settings even if i had your same set up. sry man
