Since I will be temporarily using the FX-4300 for a while longer, I want to get the most out of it by overclocking on a GIGABYTE 970A-DS3P using air cooling (DEEPCOOL GAMMAXX 400) I am using AMD OverDrive to overclock my CPU and I wonder how much Ghz I can overclock my core to, I have already tried 4.3Ghz and got around a temperature of 100F-140F, I just want to know if I can Push to 4.5Ghz (or more) on a GIGABYTE 970A-DS3P, DEEPCOOL GAMMAXX 400 air cooling, and a 600 watt silver 80+ rating PSU without setting my build on fire or whatever. (Note: I will not buy more parts to overclock this CPU since I will be already getting a core I5 6th gen by the end of this year or early 2017 & the core should last at max 4 months overclocked)
 
Solution
First thing, use AOD only for monitoring and testing, not as OC tool but you can use it as a starting point to transfer values to BIS settings and than to improve from them.
Nobody can guarantee you any specific results because they depend on particular HW specimens.
