First overclock, have some questions.

I attempted my first overclock today and I just went with something mild to see what I could get.

It was stress tested under Orthos with temps averaging 58c with full load. It has a Noctua UH12P sitting on top of it in a push setup.

Is the vcore too low? I've been reading around and seeing that as long as it is stable, then I am golden. I had it at 1.3 earlier and it was blazin hot.

Should I try some other stress tests as well? It has had some heavy AoC gaming thrown at it and was fine.

Anything else I should know as well?
 
if its not crashing with the voltage you are using while running orthos.. then the voltage is perfectly fine.. temps are fine as well keep pushing it.. see how high you can get it with the voltage at 1.17v..
 
How long did you run Prime/Orthos? Sometimes a system can seem stable for the first few hours, then suddenly crash. Had an OC crunch out 12 hours of prime, then BSOD'd at 12.5 hours...

I ran it for around 17 hours or so.
