Overclocking fx 8350 stock cooler

[SilenT30]

So I have been playing the game rust a few hours and I noticedon't my cpu never goes over 60c on a 4.4ghz oc. I'm just trying to figure out how much farther I can go. Thanks for the information later.

You can try to overclock, but I don't think the stock cpu cooler will be sufficient, you may need a liquid cooler.

This is a great guide for overclocking the FX-series:

As long as your thermals are in line you can try, though I'd expect you're right at the point that the next step is going to be a dramatic shoot up (with barely any benefit).

Yes I know that just wondering how far I may be able to go to get some better performance on the cpu.
