Can the i3 4130 be overclocked in any way?

I've put the BIOS on Performance mode but that's all I know to do in that sense. I've googled it many times and all I can find is that it cannot be overclocked. If so, why is that? Is there any way of improving its speed other than overclocking?

Thx in advance!
 
Solution
The ony way i can think of to overclock a locked processor is by increasing the bus speed. Since the voltage multiplier is locked.
You may want to tinker about overlocking using bus speed.

Ok, how do I do that? I have an ASUS H811M-A which has a cool BIOS you can use your mouse onto. How do I tinker with the bus in it?

Thx in advance1

I may not be able to find your bios setting exactly, buy ou would like to look for FSB or Bus Speed most of the time it would be somewhere near the voltage multiplier.
