I built my computer and I don't know if i should overclock it with a stock cooler. And can you please tell me what is the temp range that I should stay away from in full load

The 1700x doesnt come with a stock cooler, the 1700 does, and its around about 3.6 to 3.7ghz before you have to start raising the voltage to get anymore out of it, which is when the heat really starts to build up.

When I first checked my cpu temp, its almost 80C in full load? Is that normal?

This morning, I tested my benchmarks again and its 55c in full load. It's probably my room temperature and I changed my fan speeds too.

I just started overclocking for the first time today and it went well! I got 3.8 GHz and the temp was 70-71C with 1.35 Volts. Should I push it more?
