I am going to build a computer and I want to overclock the processor. It is an AMD A-Series APU with 4 cores running at 2.1 GHz. I want to overclock it to 3GHz but I have no idea how. Can you answer this?

I highly suggest doing research on your cpu and overclocking it as it can be potentially dangerous to all components in your system. That is a considerable jump in frequency which may require an aftermarket cooler too

Does this mean I have to get a bigger cooler? I only have a 1 fan cooler.

I think he means you should do some research in general on the topic of overclocking, and depending on what cooler you have you won't have to get another one.

Turns out, my APU is running at 30.00 +86.70 degrees C. My cooler reads "For FM1" (My APU's socket) but does not cover the whole processor.
