Hi, I'm a noob at overclocking and I have always just used software. Today I want to overclock it in bios and just have a stable temp. I used Ai suite 3 for the overclocking but i heard its unreliable and it could kill your cpu with the wrong voltage. So, i just use it to tun my fans now, just want some help to tun it to at least 4.9ghz because I dont think i can get up to 5ghz 

Thank you :)

My rig is a

i7 9700k

Rog Strix z390-e Gaming motherboard

Power supply thermal take 850w

Corsair 100i v2 cooler 

32gb of Corsair vengeance pro ram 3000mhz

Hello apparently it looks like if you wanna oc it from the bios you have to know the button that will lead you to the BIOS while booting spam that button and stop after some secs once you are in the BIOS find the core voltage section and start raising it reasonably enough not to much from the original clock and slowly raise that to a safe point. This CPU starting voltage is 3.6Ghz and  the maximum point according to intel is 4.9Ghz providing that you have a decent cooler too! So good luck and as always Overclock at your own risk.

Thanks, but i know how to get into the bios. The problem with me is i just don't know where to start with the overclocking part in the bios. I used Msi's boards in the past but I'm new to the asus motherboards!

Thanks for the help tho 

look for your motherboards key to enter the bios typically is one of the Fs key like f1 or 2 and more 

and once you get on the BIOS hopefully look up on the internet how to get to that part of the BIOS
