I've been looking around and can't seem to find the answers I seek (Asking here was my last resort)

What are the maximum safe temperatures and voltages for the various components for an i7, such as the CPU, the QPI link voltage etc.

Currently have mine overclocked to 3.5Ghz, with a voltage of 1.2V in the bios which relates to a 1.152V shown in CPU-Z. I realised the other day that I'd left my bios on auto for the voltage and it was giving it 1.35V :/ Quickly changed that asap, and now I'm getting 61C max rather than 75C under a Prime 95 Test.

Thanks for any info :)

P.S What do you think I could overclock too? I'm using a Noctua NH-U12P cooler.
