MSI MPower Z77 - cannot change CPU ratio?

[pprest123]

Hi guys. I just purchased an Intel 3770K and a Z77 MPower from Overclockers. This is the first Intel processor I have ever purchased, so forgive me if I sound newbie.

Anyway, I was lead to believe that this board would allow me to overclock, but it just won't let me alter the CPU ratio whatsoever, instead it just sits on auto.

Can anyone at all help me?

this TEMPLATE of mine is for 4.5 GHz
if you want to manually overclock, disable power saving features, where mine is on 45 in cpu specs i'd advise to set to maybe 43 and check your temps
also make sure your on the latest beta bios, or the last official.

All the core ratio limits are set to 45

Hi, thanks. I realised I am an idiot. Someone told me to try typing the CPU ratio, and that worked . Doh! So far I am stressing it at 4.5Ghz, and its been running now for almost 10minutes, and so far the temperatures are brilliant!
