im getting a new cooler too so i can overclock but is it really usefull ?
What revision is your motherboard? R1, R2 or R3?
And yes you need a good cooler if you're going to overclock.
Overclocking is ok, depending on the software, sometimes the results can be a little worse than stock, somtimes a little better or no change at all. And sometimes the gains in performance can be really high.
I found this.

Massive problem with Asus Sabertooth 990fx R1 boards do not support 8320/8350 FX cpus.
AMD really needs to stop this nonsense with backward compatible sockets.
well i know that already but i bought this motherboard on 25 january 2013
so i have no choice to run 8350 with this board
as all the parts i bought are new !!
and my computer is running great even when the bios does not support it
