i oc'd my 6700k to 4.7 on air (212 evo) with 1.295v and its considerable stable, i did a couple hours of prime95 and a couple hours of aida64 and my temps didnt go over 79c that hovered around 75/76c my sig has the cpuz validation and am wondering if this is going to cause and significant damage at this volotage and heat range the max range for my cpu is 90c before it starts to throttle. also my idle speeds are 32-33c i was thinking about getting a different cooler but read around that there is almost no need to upgrade my cooler since the 6700k is a good all around cool and oc'er.
 
Solution
the voltage that u're using is fine, the tips is don't go over 1.35v for save point.
and for the temperature fine too, just don't go over 80c for save point.
if you want to decrease the temp of your CPU just go with 1.35v since you have good air cooling and that voltage will decrease the work load from your cpu since have a bigger power.
