So, I want to overclock my cpu but I'm not sure if I can because I heard that FX can go up to 62-5c but when I check temperatures they're different so I was wondering which one is correct.

If you have AMD FX CPU, then use AMD Overdrive. There you have temp. margine, and you can test your CPU to see temps.

Yes, you can do that, but be carefull. Stress test 1hrs or little more to check if you're OC is stable. No need for more then 1hrs stress test, you're CPU will not work at 100% all the time while gaming.
