I bumped my A8 5600k APU up 500mhz for daily use. It's been grilled with 1.452v since November 2013. Lately it flopped easily at OCCT. Waiting for Ryzen to mature really and will jump to 1500x.

And yeah using Hyper EVO cooler push pull setup in a Scout Storm II casing plus 3 more fans, one suck the air in from the side and two blow out to rear and up. The rig really warms the room when gaming indicating the venting is doing the job right. Something about APU temp reading is a miss where no single monitoring soft can get it right. Currently using HWinfo and max read shows 100c. Meh it's been like that since 2013, if it's true the proc and board should be dead already.

And yea since my air cooler is doing it's job splendidly, changing to AIO water cooler is out of the window already. Yes, nothing beats a custom water cooling (when it's not leaking ya hahahah) but if you're potato lazy like me use big air cooler with lotsa fans.
