Max safe voltage for Ryzen CPU's?

Well, I feel like I lost the silicon lottery.  I have been trying to get my 1800x to get through a sustained run of Prime95 at 4ghz, and still haven't been able to even at 1.425v.  For reference, I can run 3.9ghz at 1.35v (P-states with vcore offset at 0.00 - auto) with 8+ hours of Prime95.

Cooling isn't a problem here, at the highest temps in Prime95 at 1.425v, it tops out at 76c, but ONLY on the harshest calculations with cinebench runs topping out in high 60's.

I'm just chasing benchmarks really at this point and it seems the highest scores require at least 4ghz with the highest scores up to 4.1.   I guess the reason for this post is, I can't seem to find a straight answer on the subject of what voltages I should limit myself to, even on a temporary timeframe.  I've seen 1.35 all the way up to 1.5...

Look again, this gives me bravery to go higher everywhere else. https://www.tomshardware.com/reviews/overclocking-amd-ryzen,5011-2.html

Most shockingly 1.9V Ram for ambient cooling.

And 1.3v soc

I'm especially convinced after bios upgrade to 4.7 where soc only shows red warning at 1.55v

But disclaimer as usual, if it dies, burnt and explode I take no responsibility.

Good luck.

Have you had luck with a higher SoC voltage?  I haven't increased mine from 1.1v.

I got my ryzen 7 1700 to 4.0 with a 1.44375v at max temp runs at 71c which is perfectly fine in my opinion. It's pretty stable but can't push any higher without getting into a boot loop.
