Product: Omen PC-870-014no
Operating System: Microsoft Windows 10 (64-bit)

Hi!

I'm trying to overclock this HP OMEN

https://support.hp.com/se-sv/product/OMEN-by-HP-870-000-Desktop-PC-series/11084748/model/12725465/do...

without success 

 

Although there is a "tab" for overclocking in the (sparse) BIOS setting, and the cpu is an "K" model (Intel Core i5-6600K) the frequency , after the modest overclocking to 4.100 mhz in the bios, still reads 3,9 (turbo boost) in the coreTemp app.

 

Is the motherboard (Thimphu 2B4B - Z170) not allowing the cpu to be overclocked?

 

I've updated to the latest bios as well.
