Hey guys, I want to know if it's fine to overclock an 3570k with stock cooler, and if it is, how should I do it?
 
Solution
No, never ever overclock with the stock cooler. Stock cooler can barely keep stock clocked cpus running cool. (Only exception is the G3258 dual core Pentium.)

Your going to want either a cheap good quality air cooler or if you want to get a higher overclock, an AIO water cooler.
