Hey there, I'm checking my setup with an AMD 7850K and a Gigabyte Sniper A88X. I'm thinking about pushing the CPU to around 4.2 GHz. Will the Seidon keep things cool enough? Also, what VCore should I set? Thanks a lot!

I've tried 120mm AIO coolers with a few Athlon 860Ks and managed to keep temperatures stable without overheating. I'm not sure you'll reach the APU's limits quickly enough to prevent issues with the GTX 1060, but it's worth a try.
Taking the CPU voltage above 1.5v comes with personal risk—it's AMD's suggested maximum.
