4770k @ 5 GHz with 1.048 Vcore? Need help stabalizing

[i7hero]

Hello, I've been experimenting with overclocking and am still fairly new to it. I've watched many guides and the highest stability I've reached so far without tweaking is 4.8 GHz @ .9 Vcore or so. How could I tweak my 4770k to be stable @ 5 GHz? I'd love a professional guide where I can try to achieve this goal. All assistance is welcome, btw, cooling is not an issue.

Whoa!! That is AMAZING! 1.048 vcore! You have the bomb of overclock able haswell chips.

since your using below stock voltages, it should be a piece of pie to push that thing to 5 Ghz and set it to stock volts.

You've started several threads concerning overclocking your 4770K, the first of which I think was i7-4770k stable @ 4.8 GHz - http://www.tomshardware.com/answers/id-2190700/4770k-st....

At 5.0Ghz, that voltage is only possible during idle or very light loads. Use CPU-Z and Core Temp while running Prime95 Small FFT's to properly test your CPU at 100% workload.

It's all explained in the following Sticky: Intel Temperature Guide - http://www.tomshardware.com/forum/id-1808604/intel-temperature-guide.html

Also, here are some Haswell overclocking Guides:
