Ok so Im not very informed about motherboards, not the best with the specs and I think I made a big mistake with my last purchase. Back in July I got a new CPU, Mobo, and ram to upgrade my rig and I got a 7600k so i would be able to overclock. I was fine with the speeds and frames I was getting in games so I didn't really care to OC yet as I didn't get around to do it. Just today I was wondering to why I haven't done it yet but then all of a sudden when I get to my bios OC settings most of the settings are locked and unable to be changed. Did some research and I dont think it can be OC'd in any way but im not sure. Just wondering if anyone knew if theres anything I can do with this board.
-Thanks

there is no way. the you need a Motherboard with a Z270 chipset to be able to overclock. the H270 has almost all the same features but it does not have overclocking and SLI
