So, I think that there is no way that there will better CPUs with AM3+ socket.
Because of this I want to overclock my current CPU, AMD FX 6350, till I get enough money to buy new MB and CPU instead (or Ill just save money for full new build, who knows?).
Is there a safe and verified way to OC without destroying my PC?
I want to increase FPS in The Division and BF1, since those two lag AF for me.
My specs:
MB: Gigabyte 970A-DS3P (Dual Bios)
GPU: AMD R9-280 3GB
CPU: AMD FX-6350
RAM: Kingston HyperX Fury DDR3 4GB 2x
PSU: ATX 600W Fortron Hyper
HDD: Seagate 1TB
CPU Cooler: Cooler Master Hyper T4
Thank you for your answers

I'm going to share this right now, but it's still possible. The motherboard has a low phase count and the fan might need improvement.
Check how far you can go without increasing voltage—push it until it fails. Then raise the voltage gradually and continue. I wouldn't exceed a 1 volt jump unless you have a fan on the VRM heatsink.

^ This as well. Also remember to monitor your CPU temperatures. The T4 isn't entirely bad, but it's not my top pick.
