I don't think that you really need 5GHz for 24/7. That will "damage" your CPU too because you need 1.6V+ for that so you need phase cooling for 24/7 than because there is no air cooler that can hold one CPU @ 5GHz @ 1.6V+ for 24/7 even if you tested stability and passed 1h.

Any idea of air overclocking?
Most Q740 do 4GHz with ~1.25V

Some kind of that. If you go over 72.2°C on 45nm CPU there is big chance to degrede it. One you have degreded it it'll never (rarely do) be the same so you'll need little bit more boltage for do the same freq as you did before.
