Hi
I'm having some issues with overclocking my i5-7600K processor. When I enter BIOS and move to the overclocking area, I can raise the frequency from 3.8GHz up to 4.2GHz, but I can't go higher than that. Maybe someone has a tip?
It's running on an MSI B250 Krait gaming motherboard.

Yes, your B250 motherboard limits the clock speed of the CPU to 4.2ghz. To exceed that, you'd need a Z270 board, and for faster memory speeds above 2400mhz.
