Hi. Bear in mind that the board is not H81M but H81-P33🙂

About how much is it suitable to OC the 4690k? I did 4.3 GHz 1.2Vcore with this board but didn't try to push it further. 1.2V seems is bit too much for me at 4.3 GHz, don't you think? When OCing I only raised Voltage of core and uncore, is it how it's done properly?

The board has 6 power phases but only 4 are under a radiator. Why is that? Are the last 2 phases used to power iGPU only not the cores themselves or what? Or are they just not cooled because the board is cheap?

Yes, this is a 4 phase board, rest of the phases are for iGPU and memory controller. Given how they are cooled, i think a mediocre overclock is achievable.
