i have an fx-8350 and ive overclocked it to 4.4ghz the max voltage is 1.453v and max temp is 63c, is this good? (im new to this, i just want some opinions)
 


ya it's good if you are using the stock CPU cooler , am using the same CPU with a stick cooler and stock speed and my temps are : idle : 29 , max load : 62
 

i had it at 4.5ghz and the voltage was 1.460 and max temp 64-65 so i downclocked cause i thought it was hot, what do you think should i keep this or go back to 4.5ghz?
 
Thats good for the stock cooler.

Mine is stable at 4.4 on stock voltage. (~ 1.375-1.40 when under full load, drops off when idle/light load)

AMD Application Power Management is off. Everything else is on (Cool & Quiet, C1E, C6, etc...)

I lapped the CPU heat spreader for copper-to-copper contact. At this speed/voltage it peaks at 56-57c with a Cooler Master Hyper 212 EVO when under full load. Any higher and I recommend either big air or water to be safe.
