I've found a happy place with mine:

4.7ghz @ 1.3v (CPU input voltage 1.9v) temps are excellent, hovering around 50c when gaming with an EK Predator 360, even stress tests struggle to get the cores and package above 70c.
I've got the cache/uncore at 4ghz 1.25v
Corsair Dominator Platinum's at 2400mhz 10-12-12-28-1T 1.35v

I could probably push for 4.8ghz at 1.35v but I don't feel the need to keep going, there seems to be a big difference between the initial 5820k's and the newer ones, I don't know if OC socket motherboards have helped but after initial release many people were only getting 4.2-4.4ghz out of theirs.

4.6ghz @ 1.293v - temps hit around 60ish gaming with a H110i but then i run all my fans off one hub at low speeds for the quietness. Don't know the other details without checking and would need to install a monitoring program.

edit. Did try to see what i could get and managed 4.7 at 1.31/1.32 something but decided to run at 4.6 daily as it didn't want over 1.3v.

Thoses are some nice chips. Are they a specific batch number. Appears on the 5960x J Batch chips overclock pretty well for example.
 
That is a good overclock for 4.7, my 5930k I run at 4.5ghz stable 1.25v but will do 4.7ghz at 1.33v stable in real bench. Haven't really tried much more. Need to fully test it :).
 
I have a conservative overclock pretty much all the time, in at 4.2GHz at 1.24V.
Never seen the temperature go above 55c with the H100.
 
Only ever tried mine on auto voltage, 1.312 at load for 4.5ghz. So its possible that the voltage could be lower of manually tuned.
 
just checked my batch and its a L batch from ocuk. checked a few sites and some guys running at 4.8/9 so seems pretty decent.not j batch but still good. :D
 
Have had 2, first was a dud, a real dud.. 4.1Ghz @ 1.35v is about all i did with it before i got fed up and plonked it into a mates upgrade with no overclock. 2nd cpu does 4.8Ghz @ 1.35v, same board, memory, psu etc.. latest prime95 24hr stable etc..
 
I'm currently running 4.5ghz @ 1.28v (not at home so would need to check the rest of the OC settings at a later point).

I've also got the Pred 360 and would agree with the temps you reference Ayahuasca. I also have the GPU waterblock in the loop and that only gets up to 46c max with a 1530/2008 oc.

Since I've added in the Pred from my previous AIO watercooler its clocking higher at a lower voltage. I had an Asetek 240 cooler and was only reaching 4.4 stable @ 1.3v (4.5 was nearly stable but not 100%)

I reckon that I can probably reduce the voltage more for the 24/7 and would also be able to push up to 4.6 or 4.7 for a 1.3v realbench session etc.

Shows that the cooling solution had a decent impact on the potential of the oc of the chip.

Yeah the EK Predator 360 definitely has more to it than your standard AIO, all the parts are what you would expect in a custom loop, the quick disconnect is medical grade and one of the more expensive ones (found this out in Linus' review as people had commented it looks cheap and nasty), some reviews always surprise me when they have smaller and weaker pump AIO's ahead of it somehow, I really doubt my H110 would have kept it this cool.

Nice. Seen most people getting nice oc's to date say they were j batch or w/e. Seems really any chip can get lucky. Nice overclock, what sort of voltage you need to use for 4.9 Ghz?
 
I will need to check the specifics of mine when I'm home as well, but I run a 24/7 OC @ 4.5ghz.

Vcore - cant remember but its 1.2#v # = value I need to check, I think its 1.25v

Temps wise - I haven't seen it going over 44 degrees on full load, and that is on air.
 
I run mine at 4.4 using offset voltage, speedstep enabled etc. Load Temps are never more than low 50s using real world apps, cooling it with a Swiftech 240x.
