you can safely clock it to 5.0 with extra cooling but like teh said putting it at 4.something is more than enough for those games. I don't know if you would need to overclock, i would think not because those aren't heavyweight games, but you can always try and then OC if you feel like you need to

Alright, I think I know everything I need to. Thanks for all that.
well one says you can overclock to 5ghz, you can't. only perfect chips will do that, which we won't have. Most chips will probably reach 4,6GHz stable. but, the voltage has to go up considerably to do that, which isn't great for power consumption.
g3258 performs well, overclocking to 4,2GHz is enough to play everything you want.
Just don't touch the cache clock of the cpu, it doesn't and will not reach that high a clock anyway and will crash your pc when not stable, most likely whilst in a battle.
if your settings aren't correct then your pc will simply BSOD and reboot, it's very hard to kill the chip as long as you don't overdo the voltages. it also all the chip you will ever need since dolphin is becomming more efficiënt.
