thanks for all, finally i have found 2 stable OC settings
1- 4.7ghz 1.272vcore 40x cache
2- 4.8ghz 1.312vcore 40xcache
maybe the second is too much and the cpu will degrade faster...i dont know if i use it.
Anyway I use IXTU to change profiles

Be aware that overclocking and overvolting cache will degrade it very quickly. The thing is, cache overclocking has a very little effect on most things. Unless you're data crunching and you seriously need performance, then that will do the trick. But for gaming and casual tasks, I don't think it's worth it.

ok I finally leave the cache by default but i have found 2 stable OC settings what you recommend me? what do you think about degradation in these settings?
1- 4.7ghz 1.272vcore 40x cache
2- 4.8ghz 1.312vcore 40xcache

4.8 GHz, voltage is well within limits, assuming you have lower than 85c high-load (linpack) temps.
