I recently overclocked my quad core from 3.2 to 4.3ghz, now its running at around 60 degrees core. is this a safe temperature to be running my processor at?
 
No. It's a pretty risky temperature to be at... If you go above 70 degrees, it'll probably fry. Get a better cooler just to be on the safe side.

I am still using the stock cooler but i have added a third fan to the cover. The fan + sink i have now is sort of nice but would i need to look into liquid cooling? I've spent a good deal on this processor and don't want to lose it
