I've managed to achieve my goal of OC'ing my 3600X to 4.3Ghz at 1.30V. It completed three runs of Cinebench R23 and survived one hour of Prime95 with acceptable temps. After that, what do I do? Any safety measures I should be aware of after overclocking? Any additional tests I should do? I'm new to overclocking, and I want to make sure that I'm not killing my computer inadvertently.
