I found out I accidently overclocked my CPU... IDK when this happened but it's running at 3.8Ghz ATM instead of 3.5.
I wonder how much I can take it, might go try 4.2 :)

You better track your temperatures. For some time mine was overheating until I found out I need to change thermal paste, it was going like 100°C, I was lucky I didn't damage something.

You have an 8320 right? You should be able to get to 4.2 no problem if you have sufficient cooling. I got my 8120 around 4.8, any higher and it was unstable, likely due to various problems with chipset cooling on my motherboard. Those CPU's are pretty straightforward to overclock though since you can pretty much just ramp up core voltage and adjust the multiplier until it's unstable, lol.
ANYWAY in regards to **** overheating, your PC shouldn't really be running at dangerous temps unless you've disabled the overheating protection in your bios.

I do, I've been tracking my heat for some months now and I got a new water cooler yesterday.
Yes 8320, Got it to 4175Mhz atm. Pretty sure I could get 4.4 out of it, I'm sitting at 39c (100f) while GTA5, Chrome, Skype and Spotify open (wasnt paying attention to load %).

You'll forever be up against it, adapt and overcome.

You should run intel burn test to test for stability/temps. If it doesn't overheat in IBT, it wont overheat in any game/streaming whatever.
I think most people probably don't care about you either way. If anything they're not really "against you" as much as they are "for themselves." I think that mindset where you interpret everyone as being against you is going to hinder you at times because you may not notice when people actually are trying to help you, and be able to take advantage of that.

My first flight, my first out of country experience. Been a huge coupon shopper for a year now. Saved enough and earn enough credits to get a free vacation anywhere in Europe. Making my way to the airport in a couple of hours. Super excited! A girl's gotta live her dreams.

Starting off in Vienna, Austria. Got a free 7 nights stay in Austria but hoping to make my rounds to either Rome, Paris or France. Was hoping to visit the Ice Caverns in Austria but sadly, they are closed for construction until right after I leave. But will still enjoy my company while galloping on the horses on the trials of picturesque mountains. First time leaving California. #Lonewolf

Lucky you, Vienna is such a beautiful city. I've always dreamed of visiting it.
Have a nice vacation ;)
PS : I didn't get the "Paris or France" part, but I'd suggest you Rome without a second of hesitation. There are so many things to see there, it's like an open-air museum.
