I’m looking to customize my I5 2400, but my motherboard can’t handle overclocking. Do you have any suggestions on alternative ways to tweak the CPU performance? Your advice would be appreciated.

Unfortunately, it's not possible in those cases. With a locked chip and a Z-series board, you can adjust the BCLK clock. But on B and H-series boards or non-overclocking chips, you won't be able to do that, and the CPU remains locked, preventing any overclocking.

Really? That's disappointing:/ Appreciate the assistance, though.
