I'm trying to boost my new CPU, i7 5820k, but all the settings stay in grey and can't be adjusted. It says only manual changes are possible with a compatible CPU. The frequencies are stuck in "Auto" mode, and I have an MSI X99A Raider board. Any suggestions?

I believe this trick might have misled me if I recall correctly. You need to emphasize the multiplier and adjust it using the keyboard... It seems like pressing the +/- keys could help.

Are your BIOS up to date?
