can it be done?
You're using a MOBO Asus z97m-plus with an i7 4790, capable of being overclocked up to 4.22GHz.
1.) Turn on Max Turbo Boost in BIOS
2.) Set the base frequency via Intel XTU
- Go to Manual Tuning > set Reference Clock to 105.5589MHZ
3. Restart and that's it!
Tested with MOBO Asus z97m-plus.

I've been running firstrike benchmarks and it looks like my CPU isn't reaching 4.0 as expected. My stock clock is 3.6 and the turbo should be 4.0. I even adjusted the stock to 3.8 with OC Genie, but the turbo still stays at 4.0. The results show a reported stock of 3.6 and max of 3.8 despite using OC Genie. Can I still overclock my non-K version in any way? I have a watercooler.
WOW – THANKS FOR POSTING THAT – I've got the z97m-plus motherboard and was hoping to find someone who managed to overclock my CPU – big thanks!
