What's the most I can overclock an AMD A6 5400K to without it going crazy hot?

Right now I have my GPU Clock speed at 1200Mhz and my CPU at 4400Mhz and it runs nicely under 45/50C

It's possible to overclock my GPU to 1300Mhz and my CPU 6300Mhz I think, In the 6K range anyway.

I'm upgrading my APU and GPU at the end of this month so I'd like to test it out :)

Specs :

AMD A6 5400K (Stock cooler)
MSI 2AE0
1TB HDD
GPU taken out as onboard are better.... (wtf right?)
6GB DDR3
300W Power supply

Thanks

I wouldn't overclock on a stock cooler. But to answer your question, it really depends on your chip. If you got a good chip you could maybe get another 300-400mhz on stock voltages without to much heat increase. But of course you could get a better cooler and push the cpu further.
