Overclocking to the limits
Overclocking to the limits
Those temps are a bit warm, I'd consider a better CPU cooler, but the 4.3ghz is still decent and tbh that extra 200mhz won't make much of a difference.
A superior display would be

or any screen meeting those details (2560x1440, 144Hz, IPS, 27")
The temperatures are a bit high, but the 4.3ghz is still okay and the extra 200mhz won’t really help much. Your monitor upgrade should fit well with this setup, though—don’t you think your screen is an LG 34UC79G-B? If that’s correct, you’ve chosen a great monitor to upgrade to.
Each chip has a upper OC limit depending on your luck in getting a good chip.
I think yours is reasonable for an average chip.
If another multiplier pushes your vcore over 1.3, I would stop.
1.3 is a reasonable upper limit.
The hyper 212 is popular, but it's main benefit is that it is cheap and does a reasonable job.
Since your temperatures are under 75c under load, I would not bother to change it out.
Be happy with the OC you have.
When you upgrade to a higher resolution monitor, your limiting factor may change from the cpu to the gpu.
A more suitable display would be the link provided: https://amzn.to/2uWxRTq or any similar model meeting those requirements (2560x1440, 144Hz, IPS, 27"). That's really an impressive screen. Appreciate the suggestion!
Each chip has an upper OC limit based on your chances of getting a good one. I believe yours is fair for an average chip. If another multiplier raises your vcore above 1.3, I’d stop. 1.3 seems like a sensible cap. The Hyper 212 is well-known, but its main advantage is being affordable and performing adequately. Since your temps stay below 75°C under load, I wouldn’t bother switching it out. Just be content with the OC you have. When you move to a higher resolution monitor, your constraints might shift from CPU to GPU. Thank you for your response. Your advice means a lot. I was considering similar adjustments while running benchmarks to improve performance, but it seems like the current limit is the real barrier or the silicon lottery isn’t working for me.

Also your monitor upgrade will work well with that build, I don't suppose the monitor your looking at is the LG 34UC79G-B? If so you picked a awesome monitor to upgrade to. Hey thanks. What CPU cooler would you recommend? What case do you have?
The cooler you can employ will vary based on the space you have available.
If you're using a hyper212, you need a minimum of 160mm.
The optimal choice for that setup would be a noctua NH-D15s, priced around $85.
Anything less seems unlikely to be worthwhile.
The conditions are a bit warm, I think a better CPU cooler would help, though the 4.3ghz is still okay and the extra 200mhz won’t really change much. Your monitor upgrade should fit well with this build, assuming you’re using the LG 34UC79G-B model. If that’s correct, you’ve chosen a great monitor to upgrade to.
