[SOLVED] Is it okay to turbo all of my AMD Ryzen 3300x cores with only a stock cooler fan?

My CPU currently has only one turboed core at 4.00 GHz and I've been wondering if I should turbo all of them to 4.3 GHz.
My temperature averages 60-70(max) degrees Celsius when playing games. I don't want to reach too high of a temperature before upgrading my cooling.

Thank you in advance!

Edit: Should've included my other specs too.
GPU: GTX 1060 6GB
RAM: 16 GB 3200 MHz
PSU: 750w Bronze

I was able to OC both a 1200 and a 1700 to stock boost/all cores with stock fan. The 1200 went a bit past that, but neither would go as far they had potential for until improving cooling. I have not had this experience with an X.

Been running my 3600 overclocked to 4200 with no issues. My temp rarely goes over 55 degrees when gaming. I'm using a Noctua cooler though.
