Overclocking 4770k on a msi mobo

Hey guys, I've just installed my custom watercooling loop, and I was going to overclock. So I tried to overclock, but I couldn't adjust the core clock of the cpu? YES I HAVE AN UNLOCKED CPU, I'VE CHECKED A MILLION TIMES. Anybody familiar with overclocking on the MSI Z87 G45 gaming motherboard?

You adjust the multiplier, not the clock speed. To adjust on msi boards, use the + and - keys  on your numpad.
