Question i5 3570k suggestion 4.4ghz-1.22v or 4.6ghz-1.3v

Hi everyone. I'm using my pc at 4.4ghz with 1.22v for some time now, it is stable. I wanted to raise clock to 4.6 and i got freezes and crushes, slowly increased voltage, ended up with 1.3v. I don't even know if it will be stable but no issues so far. Should i keep it like this or staying at 4.4 would be more logical? I want this system to survive at least for 6 months until i buy a new system.
At 4.6, cpu temps are 76-77 celcius max. What is the safe voltage without degredation?

1.3V is the max safe voltage for that CPU so as long as you tested it and it's stable I'd stick with the 4.6ghz overclock.

I'll do as you said then. Thanks.
