i have an msi z170a m3 gaming motherboard with rtx 2060 and i5 6600. i know my cpu struggles to keep up with the rtx 2060. after trying to overclock in bios settings, i looked up quickj research online and found that non-k versions are essentially not overclocked at all. if that’s the case, is there any way around this limitation?

Well its true that k stands for overclocking in processors. i dont really see a way you can go around it rather than upgrading ur cpu.
