Some users have recently had their accounts hijacked. It seems that the now defunct EVGA forums might have compromised your password there and seems many are using the same PW here. We would suggest you UPDATE YOUR PASSWORD and TURN ON 2FA for your account here to further secure it. None of the compromised accounts had 2FA turned on.
Once you have enabled 2FA, your account will be updated soon to show a badge, letting other members know that you use 2FA to protect your account. This should be beneficial for everyone that uses FSFT.

overclock stays in bios, so unless your bios changes the overclock should stay if you created a profile in the bios.
no overclock is "safe" but generally as long as temperatures are ok and you are not pushing way to much volts it is less likely to cause death

You're going to be limited on the 4670 overclock by whatever bclock your motherboard is able to run, way more so than your choice of aircooler.

Well in that case it's game on.
A safe, typical overclock on air with that setup, is something like 1.25V or so, 4.2-4.6Ghz
Really depends on the luck of the draw with the CPU, some clock nice and some are complete garbage.
Voltage can be higher, really depends upon how hot/cold your chip runs.

and the quality of the motherboard in question, not downing choices but Asrock are hardly known for quality
Read ALOT to get the best performance you can out of it, not that AMD and Intel are the same but a wicked high clock speed vs balanced with clock, memory-memory controller and in AMD case HT Intel case QPI? can have dramatic performance improvements as well as not everything is purely clock speed constrained.
