easily, my 3570 is at 4.3 on a worse air cooler, so i would say 4.4 to 4.5

Yes as a budget cooler it is good for mild overclocks.

it's nice that we are in a position that going from 3.4 to 4.4 is considered a mild OC

back in the day an extra GHz would need a lot of fiddling to make work.

It's the best CPU cooler out there for the price range, and will allow you to get a pretty good overclock. Nothing crazy, but still good. It's also very quiet, just make sure it fits in your case as it's very big and Partpicker won't always be right.

I think it should fit in a corsair vengeance c70 case right?

Check the measurements, I'm not entirely sure. You want it to have room to fit in, but also the motherboard will take up about 3cm-4cm or so of the case width, and you want at least a 1cm gap between the cooler and the end of the case.

The Corsair specs show a max CPU cooler height of 170mm, so you should not have any problems: http://www.corsair.com/en-us/vengeance-c70-mid-tower-gaming-case-arctic-white
