VCore really needs to come down, you should work on that first.
I thought I was a little juice happy, but WOW you are just OVing everything lol
1.25 NBVid is more than enough for 23-2400 CPUNB. 1.3+ only for crazy benching runs. Dropping this down will also really bring your temps down. CPUNB volts effect heat more than vcore in my opinion. (In fact vcore does not really effect heat at all, from what I have seen, CPU speed is the big one)
At currrent speeds, 1.45 ish vcore (ymmv), 1.25 CPUNB if at 2.3-2.4 on CPUNB no volts for NB unless you are BUS clocking.

Ive seen lots of people using 1.6V+. They are far different from intel 45nms, and take more. Wasnt going to use that for 24/7, but just to see what it could do. Have it down to 1.475 so far for 3625Mhz quad stable.
Everything else is within safe ranges, and is cool to touch. Im thinking its topped out though (for being stable anyway) at 3708Mhz. Anything more wont pass OCCT even with tons of volts and good temps. Got 3725 to pass, but that was with 1.6v, which isnt worth it when 3708 passes with 1.55.
Ill start looking for higher speeds for benching when my ram comes back.
