Hello! I understand you can boost the overclock of i5-6400 by tweaking the base clock. I have BIOS updates that allow this adjustment. My current base clock is 102.7, and it stops working when I go to 102.8 or higher—it restarts multiple times before showing "Overclocking failed!" If you're seeing such issues, maybe something is amiss or special BIOS support is needed.

Currently, most motherboards don't support it anymore, except for some ASRock models. Check this video:

My BIOS was last updated on 27/9/2015, so it's unlikely to have been removed that long ago. My Windows doesn't automatically update the BIOS.
And what about updating my BIOS to a version that allows overclocking for non-K Intel CPUs?
