G3258 overclock

How fast can an Intel Pentium G3258 run with an MSI B85M Eco motherboard and an Arctic Cooling Alpine 11 GT Rev. 2 Cooler?

It depends on your CPU, Silocon lottery.

No idea, each individual chip is unique.

But I'd suggest setting a voltage at or a bit below 1.3 and core ratios at 45 (4.5GHz) then monitoring temps under load. If it gets above 80°C lower the voltage. then keep slowly increasing the core rations until the computer becomes unstable (run Intel Burn Test or the like a few times) if the PC crashes lower the ratio to something that worked. Then play games for a while, if your PC crashes again lower the ratios further.
