Well the next question you asked is the downside. Such a high voltage will reduce life span, but by how much i'm not sure.

I tried setting it to 4.0ghz. what would be some good settings to test on this motherboard? I'm fairly new to overclocking and I'm pretty sure I did something wrong or I simply can't overclock on this motherboard :(

You cant push past 4.2 ghz at that voltage? Seems like you might of gotten a not so grand chip from the silicon lottery.

Yeah its really bad it has to be 1.360 for stable. What are the downsides of such a high voltage?

And also, around how long will its lifespan be at this voltage?
