guys i multiplied core ratio to 45x everything on auto except changing my ram to 1600 mhz(default speed of ram) from auto(1333 mhz)

running prime 95

my core voltage is around 1.304-1.320 is it safe??

cpu 2500k

mobo:asus p8p67-pro
 
bumped multiplier to 48x ,and vcore went upto 1.456 temps(77-80 load on prime95)

on 47x vcore is around 1.408 temps (73-74 load on prime 95)

temp decreases 5-7 degrees when ac is turned on.this temperature is with my noctua NH-D14

currently running stable on 4.5 ghz with temp around 60-61on load using prime95.want to make sure should i hit 4.8 ghz at that vcore for daily use

Switch to manual vcore control. Don't leave it at automatic. More often than not, you'll be able to achieve an equivalent OC at lower voltages.
Try the [H]ardOCP forums for detailed OC guides.
 
Please do not OC with vCore on auto.

Ideally with your system on stock, find the lowest possible vCore, then start the OC. Increase metrics to change speed, when unstable, then dial up the vCore. Slow and easy. Test and test.
