What is the max safe voltage I can run a 2500k on?
Currently I am able to get a stable overclock at 4.4. ghz at 1.34V Vcore.
20 minutes of stress testing with cpu-z gives a max recorded temperature of 64 degrees.
For some reason 4.5 ghz causes a bootloop, so I would probably need to up the voltage. I'm not sure if it's really worth it though for such a small bump.

Wrong pic, this is from my current overclock

Can't be arssed with skylake
The costs for scrapping my entire system for 20% performance improvement are not worth it IMO

intel cpus are safe to operate in up to the mid 70s, so go wild.

What about voltages though?

Here's my 2500k running the CPU-Z benchmark.

Core coltage also dials under 1.3 when I run the benchmark, what is the actual voltage you got it set to in your bios?

I just noticed that, he's when the bench was running for longer.

SO CLOSE

For some reason my CPU now keeps sticking at 4.4 ghz even when I'm not doing anything, it doesn't underclock anymore when nothing is going on.
Any idea what might have happened?

you disabled speedstep
check your bios settings
