I would consider upgrading the cooling though if you have any suggestions to offer. i don't have any dual rad ports though so if i did an H100 it would have to be external and floating.... not sure how I would do that
You're right around where you should be temp wise actually. Remember that this is an 8-core CPU, it's going to get hot.
H80s and Kuhler 920s get to 4.7-4.9
H100s can get to 4.9-5.0, (although only I have done it with an 8320 :\ )
A good XSPC kit can do 5.0 easier.
Another alternative is to learn what the equivalent to giga's PLL or Asus's VDDA voltage is on ASRock and bump that up (and then tell us what it's called so we can help others). So far that has allowed those of us who did it to lower core voltage (and thus temps) a bit for the same OC. The stock voltage for it should be 2.5v, which should help identify it.
Also, good TIM is much cheaper then a new cooler, and can drop temps a few C on it's own. Something to consider.
