I don't want like record overclocking but just a little to improve performance. How much can I over clock without causing blue screen and overheating
 
Solution
Pretty much every CPU will do 4.4 - 4.5 GHz .... depending on the individual CPU, 4.5 may be a stretch for the 212.

Test for stability w/ RoG Real Bench

Recommend HWiNFO64 for system monitoring (voltage / temps)

I'd keep voltage down around 1.25 ... can try 1.275 if core temps max out in mid 70s.
