Hi, would it be possible to get the pentium g3258 to 6ghz or close with a high end AIO 240mm water cooler?

-Just curious

No. You'd need to go to a nitrogen cooling system, like those used by world record overclockers. You would be lucky to crack 5GHz. Not sure what the point is anyway since a more powerful overclocked CPU (i5, i7) running at a slower GHz would beat it in games and applications. Never mind those high O/Cs you see are on one core, not four cores like the i5 and i7 O/C chips..

Lol, a high end water cooler. You'd need a nitrogen cooler to hit that, as the past few have said. But why even bother spending that much on water cooling? Return the cooler and the CPU, then buy a 200 dollar i5. It makes a lot more sense then overclocking the hell out of the G3258
