All i can do here is envy...my 6700k refuse to go anywhere past 4.3, that thing runs windows fine at 4.8 but any stress test above 4.3 stopped in 3 minutes no matter what voltage i put.

I cant remember much, but for 4.5 ghz I have tried 1.32v to 1.46v with increment of 0.2v each time.

Stress test using AIDA64 says I have a hardware failure each time after around 2 minutes, so I tried Prime95, which crashes my PC almost instantly each time, I finally went for a gentler Intel XTU, even trying to benchmark using XTU crashes my PC with a CLOCK_WATCHDOG_TIMEOUT error which usually indicates not enough voltage, but I figure that if this PC cant even go past 4.5 with 1.46 then it's not worth my time and electricity to OC.

1.46v is way too much for a 6700K OC @ 4.5GHz. Probably worst chip that I've ever heard of so far (sorry).
It could be improper settings as well in the BIOS so you better check it out again.

My BIOS settings for 6700K OC @ 4.5GHz look like this: http://www.ocdrift.com/review-gigabyte-z170x-gaming-g1/3/

Going to check if I missed something, maybe this weekends, when I'm not working, I might forgot something as the last time I OC, it was several years ago with a 2500k.
