Just curious, for those of you who have/had an athlon 860k, what were you able to get it to over clock to with or without after market cooling? what were the voltages and such? I'm trying to Overclock mine and I need to see what people got it to so I can start somewhere beneath there and see if i can get it to that level

PCPartPicker have a few 860K builds

 

they are reporting OC up to 4.5GHz with aftermarket cooler

 

will not suggest OC with stock cooler

Budget? Uses? Currency? Location? Operating System? Peripherals? Monitor? Use PCPartPicker wherever possible.

IIRC, typical overclocks are around 4.3GHz. The Athlons need quite a voltage bump to reach higher clocks, so it's not gonna be on the stock cooler

When I had my 860K, I overclocked to 4.5 Ghz.
