Should I over clock my CPU?

Solution
Hello, you could probably do a very small overclock on it but i would be wary of the voltage and temps when you are doing it as that cooler is more designed for quiet operation, just be careful! i hope you find this helpful.

I have this same CPU with the Evo 212 and get good temps on a 4.3ghz overclock. 4.5ghz also but I keep it on 4.3 since 4.5 requires a higher voltage.

So yea the 212 is a great cooler.

Pretty much yea but don't just jump to let's say 4.3 since every chip is different and will not overclock the same way as mine per say. You can start raising it little by little then test out the overclock with a program such as aida64. If your overclock is stable then raise again and repeat. When your computer crashes then it might be time to raise the voltage, again do this in little increasements then testing again. You do not want to go over 1.5volts.

How much can i increase ghz without increasing the voltage?
