Overclocking AMD FX 8350

Okay, so I just purchased an AMD Fx 8350 and now I'm looking into Overclocking this cpu. I don't have much experience with Overclocking and I noticed a lot of information out there can be very specific to the hardware that is involved when it comes to settings and the overclocks that you can get. I just purchased a Corsair H60 Performance AIO liquid cooler, and I was wondering what kind of overclock I can somewhat expect out of this cooler. I want to get a decent overclock out of this but nothing too insane. 

 

Currently my system consist of

cpu- AMD fx 8350

cooler- will be Corsair H60 as of tomorrow 

mobo- ASUS M5A97 LE R2.0 AM3+ AMD 970

ram- 12 gb of Kingston hyper x 1600 MHz cl10

Hdd- wd blue 1tb

ssd- trion 120 gb 

psu- evga 600watt bronze 

gfx- gfx 750

 

Basicly if someone can give me a decent stable starting point for an overclock on this cpu that would be great. Once again I don't know much about Overclocking and any tips/help would be much appreciated. If you need to know anything else just lmk and thanks in advance!

 

-I also know it can vary from each individual cpu

The H60 isn't 'incredible', but it should get the job done. Try posting in the 'Liquid and Exotic Cooling' subforum to find out what you can expect with a hot FX 8350 and one of those.

You'd be better off with a Noctua NH-D15, if you can fit it in your case.
