I just built a new system consisting of this 
i7 10700k

Aorus H470 Pro AX motherboard

16gb Corsair vengeance 3200mhz
Aorus p850w.

I've been trying to overclock the 10700k for awhile now and no matter how many times i set the core clock speed , it still gets stuck at 4.7ghz , even messing with the turbo ratios doesn't work , only thing that works is adjusting the core voltage.

I did some googling and apparently H series motherboards are NOT able to overclock??

I'd like to know if this is true ? The seller who sold me this knew I was going to overclock and told me this board is able to... But now it seems hopeless

The seller lied to you (EDIT: or was mistaken). Only Z series motherboards (so Z490 in this case) can overclock.

Your memory on H470 is also locked to 2933Mhz max.

Damn. I guess that's 2 lies then. He told me the RAM and the overclocking was possible. Shucks . 

Thanks
