They just aren't meant to be overclocked really. That's why Intel has k-series overclocking specific processors.

I swear your post farming but anyway there was a glitch in haswell non K chipsets that let you overclock a tiny bit 4.2GHz people reached but intel have been quick to fix the bug.

Yes you can using their multiplier, they do have a limited range though. K donesnt mean overclockable all it stands for is having a unlocked multiplier. Also depending which cpu you have you can also do it via the bclock or if you have an older cpu only the bclock. As a note newer consumer architectures (sandy and ivy) dont take kind to bclock changes.

k series arnt really meant to be ocd either all they did was unlock the multiplier and nothing else besides validate it for the specs your receive it at.

intel fixed the bug of being to oc on non Z87 chipsets you could always oc any of their cpus wether it be K or non K its just that in recent years they require you to buy certain chipsets to do so.

the multiplier isnt locked per say as to me that sounds like there is only one multiplier setting since unlocked means you can have any (except in haswell where you cant exceed 8ghz) . It can be changed and I believe you even have a couple steps above the multiplier that is used for turbo. Throw in a little change to the bclock and youll have a nice oc. If you dont know this means youll need a lower multiplier to get the same oc. Now where youll be able to get it stable, that just come from trial and error which is the essence of overclocking.
