undervoltage the cpu

Hi all out there i have this i7 4790k i have oc it to 4.4 but the only way i could do that with the ram clock to 2400mhz was to under-voltage my cpu so i wanna hear if this is dangerous i did all my sync all my core to 44 and min cache ratio and max cache ratio to 40 both of them and then i manual core voltage override down to 1.1181 and cpu cache voltage to 1.150 it dos seem stable for now but should i just put min cache and max to auto and the same with cpu cache voltage to auto ?

((mobo is an asus z97 pro gamer)). have a friend who says im doing and dangerous work but when i read about it on the internet its does not sound so dangerous. could really need and little helping hand here.

its not dangerous to under volt it

just if you go too low it might crash is all

so what about the rest should i leave the 3 last thing on auto ? or its good that i had done ? :/ very confuse i would love to have it on auto the cache ratio min and max and the cache voltage on auto to. but not sure when i did had those on auto and core voltage on 1.170 it crash in blue screen and do i lose any performance on doing undervoltage?

i prefer to set stuff manually rather than use auto

no shouldnt lose performance by lowering the voltage

can test that with cpuz to make sure its hitting the correct speed under load

its hit the 4399.0 on all four core and its stay on 4399.0 at all time even when idle i like it that way and its higest yet i have seen was 74c but before i was hitting like 78 and peek on 80c when i just had it stock voltage its was crazy it was like 1.290 core voltages !

so its the numba right for the cpu ? im good ?

looks good as long as it doesnt crash then you look ok
