I just bought an FX 8350 with the Wraith Cooler and am considering a light overclock. I'm completely new to this process and don't want to risk damaging my system or causing any damage. I've looked into the Wraith Cooler and seen many people achieve good performance upgrades.

Exactly. 4+1 and no cooler on it. FX 8350 at 4.7 GHz can pull as much as 180W.

I wouldn't think about using an OC for that motherboard. The VRM is too weak.

The board is unable to provide sufficient stable power to maintain the overclocked state.
