4960X stable at 4.8Ghz 1.46v, 1.1v VCCSA - ok for long term?

[Intel_of_Borg]

I just repaired the 2x 12v pins on my PSU connector and the board. 12V PSU ATX pins were melted and dropping to 11.4V under load.
Since the 24pin was repaired I can now get the 4960X stable at 4.8Ghz 1.46v high LLC which reads as 1.468v under load. (mem at 1866 1.65v)

12v ATX now reading at 12.12v under CPU load (12.288v idle) with 64bit linpack and 11.7v with OCCT powersupply test (which is a brutal test running 4way GPUs and linpack together!) hottest core was 88c and coolest 84c after 15 mins. I think im pretty happy with that considering nothing I do pushes the CPU that hard so Ill probably end up with 75c max.

What do you think is that safe for long-term use?

Also I have 4way 3GB GTX580's with VGA hotwire pulling 1.3v @ 1000/2200. Is there anything I can do to supplement the 12V lines to stop the ATX pulling so much current and melting pins? Im using the 8-pin and 4-pin CPU 12V and the PCIE 12V ezy-plug. Also using 2x 1500W max revo PSUs with load split across ATX, GPUs and accessories. From the wall @ 240V I'm pulling 1400W from one and 900W from the other PSU under OCCT load test. Any recommendations?

Thanks for the cine run bud. Just ran the same one at 4.8 on my rig. 1246 on my 3960x @ 1.385 Vc.. pretty sure I will just keep this chip for the BE build.

That is a good chip

Just a little more diagnosis that I thought Id share in case it might help someone else.
I dont know why I didnt think of it before!

After the repair to the 24pin ATX the 2 x 12v1 pins were getting hot again so i decided to pull a few more cables out. (even though its like spaghetti city in there)
I found the Ez-plug PCIE cable at the PSU end was slightly brown. (it had gotten hot!) I had only checked the board end of the cable and it was fine.

So Ive replace the ez-plug cable and used a different 12v rail on the PSU (to avoid the potentially damaged pins) and all the cables now run at normal temps and im getting less vdroop on the 2x 12v1 now (11.9) under OCCT powersupply test.

That makes heaps of sense to me. Thank you very much for the update.

No Worries mate! It was great to get some support with my problem.
Even though the original answers didnt solve the problem, they did help me narrow down where to look and eventually uncover the culprit!

System has been rock solid since, in fact probably the most stable its ever been, without a single crash during many hours of maxed GPU usage.

That original cable with the melted ez-plug PCIE cable was actually a factory Enermax PSU cable and the only cable I didnt make from scratch! I upgraded all of the wiring in my custom cabling by at least 1 gauge of wire from what Enermax used as well because I knew I was going to be pushing it hard and wanted minimal voltage drop! 🙂
