Hi there. Right now my FX8320 is running at 4.2Ghz with a voltage of 1.39. I am also using a H100i CPU cooler with pushpull configuration at about 50C° on load. When i saw the recommended parts for GTA V i got scared. All my other components are well over the requirements. With GTX 770, 16gb HiperX ram and more. Should i overclock it to 4,5Ghz to get a few extra frames because I'd really like to play it on max settings. Thank you !

No need to overclock man! You will be perfectly fine on those settings at 1080p, usually the recommended requirements are overkill anyways. But if you are that worried you can wait till it comes out and watch benchmarks from youtube
