Hello! So I managed to overclock my 9600k to 4.9 GHz! I was hoping to hit 5.0, but it's whatever... I was wondering if my core voltage is too high? It's at 1.43V right now full load. My idle temps are around 32-36 degrees Celsius and my full load is around 70-73 degrees Celsius. I didn't touch AVX offset cause I have no idea what it does. Thoughts?

Build:
MB: MSI Z390-A PRO
CPU: i5 9600K
Cooler: Scythe Mugen 5 Rev.B
GPU: NVIDIA 2060 Super
RAM: Corsair Vengeance LPX 3200 2x16
PSU: Corsair RM 750W
