During normal day work the cpu will never be pushed so hard so that overclock is succesful. If you're still uncertain run prime95 in blend there is probably no other program out there that pushes the processor to it's limit like pime 95. If the temps are still 86C then for daily use there shouldn't be any problems.
What are your temps in idle?

Which temps are you referring to and what application are you using to assess them?
Your most important temps are the temps of the individual cores... use an application which is able to show them... - then you could be on the safe side for 24/7 usage if your core temps are staying below 75C-80C during LinX...
The Noctua NH-D14 is a very potent cooler... - if you can supply enough airflow through it...

And yeah, the NH-D14 is working great. My idle temps are already 10-15ºC lower, and I think it's pretty impressive that I'm stable at this voltage given I'm at 4.5GHz.

I'm quite jealous of you at the moment, the voltage is really nice, though the cpu seems to be a hot one. My 3770k is wc cooled and for a stable OC at 4.5 ghz I have to have 1.34v.

Well, having 45-48C on the cores during idle at 4.5GHz, 1.225V, doesn't seems too good... it depends on the ambient temps, but at such low voltage, you should be at least in the mid 30s... again, depends on the ambient temps (I'm supposing around 24-26C)...
Regarding the de-lid of the CPU... well, there are some good experiences about that... and bad too... - I'm about to doing it, changing the internal TIM if you meant that... One thing is sure, we will loose the warranty... 🙂
