Fx 8350 overclocking

[LairdEJM]

Just a quick question. I have an FX 8350 cooled by an asetek LCLC (low cost liquid cooler). Would it be at all possible to overclock with this cooler? I have no plans to get a new cooler as of now so if the answer is a "no don't try it" then I will stay put!

Thanks

The question is why overclock? if you are a gaming, for example, you might see ZERO differences. And at best 2-8fps. Not enough to justify overclocking. Toms has proven this over and over.

If your temps are good and your motherboard can handle it, Give it a go.
Warning it can be addictive!!!

My server downstairs went from 20,000ppd to 25,000ppd by overclocking.
My video card went from 30,00-40,000ppd to 40,000-50,000ppd by overclocking
My every day comp cpu went from 8000ppd to 11,000ppd by overclocking.
Why be so negative ?????
Gaming is not the only thing computers do.
