So had a look around after finding out that it's currently possible to OC the non-k versions of skylakes. Before people go on about (Should have just bought the K version) the non-k was dirt cheap at the time, would have been silly to miss it.
From what I'v researched, the only issues thus far is no program will give a temp output (which is fine because I can just monitor GPU for a close guess as I have a fully custom loop)
I need to turn off Turbo Boost
There is potentially a BIOS update I might need (Refer to picture before suggesting to change BIOS)
Other than that, I don't actually know what I'm doing as I'v only ever used the multiplier on an AMD chip, never changed voltage (which I'm lead to believe I will need to change to ~ 1.35V for a 4.5Ghz OC (Which is a guess, I know testing will be needed to be done))
Is anyone able to help a newb out at all?
