It would be necessary to specify a 4770k and a Z97 or Z87 chipset to achieve the overclock, as H series chipsets lack those capabilities.

your cpu isn't a non-K model and your motherboard isn't a Z chipset either, yet you might want to explore the issue further.

Unable to overclock with a non-K and non-Z series chipset. Would upgrading to an i7 4770k still help?
