Advice For OCING AMD FX 8350 using Seidon 120M

Hey guys,

So i'm doing a build for a friend, and he wants to try and OC (albeit safely) his FX 8350. He has a Seidon 120M which we are gonna set up on a push-pull config.

His set up:
480Gb PNY Optima SSD/1TB WD blue
AMD FX 8350/Seidon 120M cooler
Gigabyte 990FXA-UD3
Corsair HX 750 PSU
XFX R9 280X
8 GB Kingston Hyper @ 1600 Mhz.

Im used to doing OC for intel systems but have never done so in an AMD system and i fear the difference in heating curves could cause me to mess something up. Feed me your knowledge!

Rig:
4770k @ 4.4 Ghz (1.275Vcore) W/ Seidon 240M push-pull
EVGA Gtx 970 FTW
ASUS ROG Maximus VI Hero (Z87)
480 GB PNY Optima SSD+ 248 GB Kingston V300 + 2TB 7200 RPM Seagate Barracuda
16GB Kingston HyperX @ 1866 Mhz 1.62V
Corsair HX 750W PS
Corsair Obsidian 750D
