Prebuilt computers and laptops generally always have a locked BIOS which prevents OCing. Could look to get a different mobo, but wouldn't really be worth it

Hello friend.
Yes, because this motherboard came with Digital and heat-sinked VRM (voltage regulation module), you are able to overclock your CPU safely. I don't think you would have a locked BIOS. It's still an ASUS motherboard. If anything just flash the BIOS through ASUS website.
I would recommend getting the Hyper 212 EVO CPU cooler. It is a good value per dollar heatsink and because it's aircooled you will be blowing air over the VRM's and out the back of your case. Something very important.
Make sure you have a proper case fan setup. Remember intake is just as important as exhaust.
