from what i've seen in other similar threads 80 degress at 100% usage is fine, so work up to that and see how far you can take it.

might help to post up rest of your spec, cooling, ram, mobo etc.

also, a few threads around for the 3570K, have a look at them and see what you can pick up.

you might be able to squeeze 4.6ghz out of it,any higher and temps are gonna be a problem imo
