I'm using 2700K too, was running 4.6GHz stable for months until I decided not to overclock anymore as the I could no longer bear the extra heat in my room.

I find a good balance of performance and heat by running it at 4.3GHz.

What you mentioned about the default 1.6GHz and auto 4.x GHz when gaming is the Intel Speedstep must be turned on for dynamic frequency switching based on load.

Got it in 2012, from Intel staff sale.
