Choosing the right motherboard really depends on it.
I have a 970a sli krait edition, could you assist?
Merged version of the text:
The user seeks guidance on overclocking an AMD 8320e to reach 4.5ghz, feeling unsure after reading various forum posts. They request assistance and clarification, mentioning they need tips and want to learn from others. They also ask for advice on selecting a CPU cooler and power supply brand.
That's acceptable.

Well, if it doesn't boot, the overclocking attempt failed. You might need to reset the BIOS in that case. Usually, you should increase the speed gradually, starting from low to high frequencies. Initially, without increasing the voltage:
For 4.1GHz:
CPU Multiplier @ 20.5
FSB @ 200
AMD Turbo: Disabled
XMP ram profile: Disabled
For 4.2GHz:
multiplier to 21
and so on
Monitor temperatures after each adjustment.
The issue with your board seems to be related to the VRM power phase design. There aren't enough VRMs for stable overclocking, but you can try to make it work.
