I increased my FX-6300 with a Gigabyte 970a-ud3p and it's now at 4.5 GHz and 1.44 VCore. The temperature climbs to about 61°C during Prime95 use. I'm wondering if I can push it to 4.6 or even 4.7 GHz without the temps rising too much. (I'm thinking of getting a 7970 now, I have a 7850.) Idle is 24°C, Prime95 took 30 minutes and got 61°C, and the cooler is an Enermax Liqmax II 240.

Asked about the 4.7GHz performance at the same voltage, hoping the 970a-ud3p board can manage this substantial overclock
