Its my first time ever overclocking a CPU. I dont have any fancy watercooling, but the normal CPU fan.

FX-8320 Eight-Core 3.5Ghz

I wanted to know how can I get the best of it without any BlueScreen or to much temperature (anything below 60-70ºC should be good).

I want to play CSGO at +200FPS. My GPU is the ATI HD5870 ;).

Can I get 4.5 without any water cooling? What about 4.1-4.3 stable?

Thank you all,
SL4Y3R

If you want to overclock you need an aftermarket cooler, otherwise the CPU will run very hot (especially AMD).

Plus, like I wanted to point in my last question, what is the point of having 200+ fps?

Basicly I want to stream CSGO and play CSGO with teamspeak and spotify opened, or even play on dm servers. I need always +128 FPS, since thats how many times the server refreshes and my monitor is a 120Hz one. And CSGO updates are coming and my FPS are getting worse and worse, so it would be good to have those FPS now. What cooling should I buy and what motherboard should I buy? I want to get stable 4Ghz atleast, 4.1-4.5Ghz would be even better!
