Hi, I'm checking if it's possible to overclock the CPU in your FX 8370. It has a model number of 9701A-G43 Plus (MS-7974) and a stock Wraith cooler. I'm wondering if the cooler is sufficient to reach at least 4.2 GHz.

On that motherboard, it's good to be pleased the CPU isn't throttling under stock configurations. Going overclock would not be wise.
