So I overclocked my CPU to 4.7 the other day and everything seemed fine then it crashed and I thought it was to do with the temps so down clocked to 4.6 then to 4.5 for doing the same but whilst reading my temps it never went over 60 degrees and I have a feeling it's to do with the h80i and it's settings I currently have I'm using a custom curve but it did the same when I set to default

XFX R9 290,AMD FX8350,Samsung 840 Pro 128gb SSD, ASUS Sabertooth 990, Corsair Vengance 8GB Ram 1600mhz, Zalman Z11 Plus mid tower. Corsair H80i Liquid Cooler,Corsair m40 ,Corsair Vengance K70

Man how come you can get 4.5Ghz out of your 8350 with a h80i, and I can only get 4.3 *sighs*.

Yeah I did this after and it seemed to fix it running at 4.7 now :) I just was worried that it was the h80i as this is the second one Iv had as the first was faulty and when it crashed all my settings got reset like my LED and my custom curves but it's all sorted now

if your cpu core temps are 60-70oC under max load its working well.  you could also turn up the pump so it ramps from say 50% to 100%.
