For sure. The second star is hitting the 65k limit. Is this on the individual sub or the luminance master?
The 8300 has a full well depth of around 25k so depending on your optical configuration, you'll need to adjust the exposure time accordingly. You should evaluate unbinned as opposed to 2x2. Also star saturation doesn't hurt too much, at least not as much as a NABG chip. Letting your pixels bleed for the sake of improved counts in the dim areas is a good thing providing the brighter stars don't bloat.
