I was wondering is the fan that comes with the FX 6200 a good quality fan? Can it keep the FX 6200 cool even when overclocking?

The stock heatsink with AMD's processors is good for a few MHZ of overclock. Usually around 4.5Ghz with a light voltage bump. AMD safe CPU temp is 60c.

An intel heatsink cannot be used on an AMD processor due to the motherboard mounting mechanism. Zip ties and/or duct tape don't count as working.
