I just recently upgraded to Haswell from AMD and my plan was to overclock it. But when in the bios, it won't let me change to multiplier or the voltage. Is their a setting that i need to change? I believe the K in the name stands for an unlocked multiplier. Am I wrong?

CPU: i5 4670K
Cooler: Corsair H80i
Motherboard: MSI Z87-G45 Gaming

Make sure that the relevant settings in the bios are set to manual and not auto, that will allow you to change the multiplier and voltage.

That's the problem, its stuck on auto. It won't let me change the cpu ratio and the voltage to manual mode.

Figured it out, you just have to press the + key or just start typing numbers.
