So I got this intel pentium g3258 processor which is unlocked so i wanna know that how much can i overclock it from 3.2GHz provided that it runs stably and still gets a long life, not going above 73 degrees mark with STOCK COOLER and not any other cooling source.
 
Well the CPU can OC to 4.2GHz rather easily and 4.4GHz after some more tweaks, but with some af cooling. I'd say try 4GHz and use Prime95 to stress it and then use temp monitoring software to monitor the temps. If its anywhere b/w 70-75C on full load, then you'll be good to go.
