Trying to overclock my i5-4670k, I set it to 1.2v at 46 multiplier and it started to boot then crashed, so I upped the voltage to 1.25 and managed to get into windows but then it crashed when running prime95 blend. Right now I'm getting a stable 50c-60c degrees at 1.25v and 40 multiplier. I'm wondering if prime95 blend mode is fine for testing as well as if I should up the voltage/multiplier keeping in mind I want the processor to last as long as possible.

Also wondering about overclocking my GPU. The Asus is known for good temps and cooling, but I didn't think overclocking a GPU would be as safe (I have the intel tuning performance warranty). It is currently clocked to 1.11Ghz.
