Could i go up to 3.5 Ghz ? Im Using it With 12Gb 1866Mhz Corsair RAM and XFX R9 270x Gpu On ASUS A75 V-PRO Motherboard and a 700w psu

It depends on the cpu every one is different you need to try,raise clock a little bit then run some stabilty test and if it passes then raise again and again check stability and repeat this until you find max stable settings. Also make sure that temps are not too high. You can check stability with prime95
